The Contest
A wave of loving memories
verse the tide of hateful notes
The ultimate fight of wrong and right
With vict'ry not won by votes
A swarm of reminding papers when you promised you'd be there
Plentiful poems of anger and heartbreak echoing their despair
Your life has been a whirlpool of streaks of red and blue
Red is building bridges and Blue is falling through
A whirl of constant pattern, good and bad twisted tight
My life the causing factor, My words the source of might
All the hands I've lifted, all the lives I've saved
I've let back down again
The worlds best catcher
The devils favorite too
For with my every catch: he checks it
As a soul I'll torment too
