Wretched ....

I've lost it all
Whether big or small
All these times I've thought
That I'll win them all

It's time I take the fall
Never has it been my call
Every night I'll stay awake
Knowing it's my life at stake

There were tears and fears
A state of mind unclear
The pain slowly crept
The grieving body wept

Now I'm making my climb
These steps taking me closer to the end of my time
As life's moments flash me by
A prayer I'll say to bid the world goodbye

Standing over the ledge
To the world below I pledge
If I'll ever survive this plunge
God's gracing me with a life's refund

Popo

Every smile a struggle 
Loosen muscles, wrinkles, sunken face

Every move a pain 
Hardened joints, swells, awkward limps  

Time slithers every cell withers
Her life's been one hell of a resister

Falling in her fifties
Cracking the cap out of the left knee 

She'd married two men separately
Both dead by the time she turned  seventy

Now trying to breath her life to a century 
No one's sure if it'll all end up a merry

Depression

The mind in chaos an internal conversation
Bringing unrest and thoughts of confliction

Razor sharp knives stabbing in aggression
The pain's inability to release the wounds affliction 

Escaping from reality, circles and rounds
Gagged and confused I am bound

Voiceless to scream i build a wall
Struggle amounts i begin my fall

Wrecked, broken the soul's combatant
Breaking out of hell ensuring existence

Conjuring strength out of hatch
Fighting vigor match for match

Rising above the sadness
I'll live yet another day of madness
