Just another Automaton

By Liya

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Survival ---that's the name of the game Ruthlessness -- guess that's the same Nothing's forever The present is all you can take There's nobody for you You are the only one for your sake Days will go by, nights will pass Drawn in shades of grey On bleak empty canvas Regrets will come haunting by Resignedness will reign But what the heck, that's life Not the fairy tale of the insane Yes..still I hold on to it, still I cry But hey I'm getting over it - just let me try! cheers to all you automatons out there I'm one of you.
