A full moon, countless stars, and a sky so clear
wide awake with sleep nowhere near
Three days with no rest
I put my body to the test
I ressurect memories of the past
I ask myself, "How much longer does this last?"
"How much longer of darkness with no light?"
"How much stronger must I fight?"
"How much longer of the fears?"
"How much longer of the tears?"
"How much longer of the pain?"
"How much of me still remains?"

I know we are our own worst critics but poetry never sucks as long as it's real. Great job man.
