Yet Again

Yet again saw it

Yet again it came

It was ever when it came

Yet I knew from that moment that it would come again

It came to me every night

It came there just to infuriate me

And I have to say it succeeded

It tormented me finally reducing me to tears

On my knees praying to a god I didn’t believe in

The first time I had grieved for my own life

But then it went away

It went with me to the road but I had come back

Yet I came back in a mechanical way

Straight as the people I hated

Now it wasn’t the thought of having it with me again

But never remembering it again

It had kept me resolute

I was still there

But for that short moment I was lost in my own unpromising past
