Leech Life Poem by Sven Rhoads

Leech Life

Empty minds and hungry hands keeping taking more
I've drained the last drops but its never enough
I'd hate to see what down the road will have instore
In the strangle hold all efforts will be snuffed

I am the lonely desert, I have been bled so dry
I'm watching all I've done recede into the blind of eyes
I am drop in the ocean, A ghost among the living
Raped by consumption, a beast so unforgiving

Burning on the coals one day
And freezing in the wind another
Why cant they all just go away
Why do I even bother
The constant need that cannot be satisfied
This is not my life but never ending suicide

Smiles ten miles wide but their own agenda
Caring not what I must continue through
'I should be happy' Well, return this to sender
Cause all I want is to rid myself of you

I am highest the mountain, looking on from afar
I'm watching devastation keep raising the bar
I am the open field, The sweetest desolation
Dreaming of sweet release in quiet isolation

For some nothing is ever enough when it costs them nothing, for others simplicity is the golden rule
