The Scare After the Triumph
I have invested my time
Buried my heart into it
Please, slowly pour my soul
As I overwork
Time passes
And I grow in ugliness
Sleepless nights and numbness
Tastes like bitter gourd
Conquered what I need to
Won the fight
That nobody need to
Thinking I'm victorious
As I grew into a giant.
Maybe what's inside me
Grew as well
And swallowed me completely
The platform was waiting
The crowds were cheering
My insides are screaming
My monsters are lurking
My heart pounds heavily
For that one second
A second when the prize was in my hands
Slowly crumbling in ashes
Flew like a butterfly
I have everything what a soul needs—
But now, I am soulless
