The Contest

Tue, 08/14/2018 - 00:03 -- Aegis

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
