Drenched in Life

Drenched in pain.
From personal gain.

Waiting for release.
A long awaited peace.

The fear appalls.
A tear falls.

Alone in the world.
Hoping to be uncurled.

Fallen by day.
This was not my way.

Going to the extreme.
Crossing a stream.

Trying to pass.
Walking on broken glass.

Such a big scar.
From getting this far.

I'm not going to quit.
Even if unfit.
