Pressure

Prologue: They who are at constant warring with monsters, should see to it that in the process they don't become the very thing they strive desperately to defeat. Guts ( Berserk, the anime). And so, I bleed once again, my velvet ink on paper, across each finely drawn line. So it begins................ Feels like a curse, as I stray from my path each new day. The feeling of defeat a pleasurable conundrum Atop the mountains, I stand as I gaze at the sea with it's rippling tides Further into my despair, I sink. Drawing breaths a heinous activity. Muffled, my exhalations seem as I lose sight of the after glow. Can you see what's haunting you? A voice, subtle and calm questions. The answers as to why you feel all alone, do you seek? A veteran of pain you do claim? Air out your heart and despair in your soul if you so wish. Now the pressure brims from within. Journeying through journals, Reality feels questionable. In the thrills to hold dearly to life, not a person to give me hope. Pushed to the edge, feeling a twist across the night, my background grabs on for the dough. Caring less for my chances, Imma lend out my heart Feeling like death's enclaimed, the reaper sure demands a heavy price. Taking on the heated pressures, My demons howl through the night's air. Taking on the pressures, An irreparable scar is made. Through my sorrows, My broken body and a dysfunctional spirit, imma keep on fighting. Though I may be long gone, imma keep on fighting. Until I raise my hands in victory and snicker at my pressure's demise.
