today will never come

a poem which i wrote in a moment of feeling defeated,not necessarily a physical defeat

" today will never come"
when you finally come to your senses
spitting the disgust you have tasted
and have realized your righteousness
and all the time you have wasted

when the sun comes back around
with the same dread as yesterday
you know where you are
cause you never walked away

everything will be in its place
each and every single one
but in this empty space
today will never come

you only know you fell
when your face hits the ground
your flesh will swell
and your spirit will frown

anger will be the remedy
as it opens your swollen eyes
a cure for the misery
a sword and shield will rise

everything will be in its place
each and every single one
but if yesterday reflects from your face
today will never come
