Ambition

Have you tasted the tears tracing your swollen cheeks?

Have you tasted the broken heart that reeks

Of thoughts that shudder before the mind could catch

And shudder alike in a quaking match

struck up a flame, shivering thin

To guide the lame, where has thou been

Under the bed, from thy nightmarish dreams

Of tomorrow's foreshadow, like a blackening stream

That veins the body, and roots in'th soul

Where on both shoulders in some comforting ghoul

which calms thy storms on a sunny day

Break all silence and light the way

Here's the key, to this beating chest

Here's the ward to wake thee from rest,

Existence is cruel, more to some than others

Even I am misjudged by my absent blunders

The time would come soon, where this ward will be free

For thee to open, and carry to me

And place in return the crimson eye

To breathe into me, or let to die

To let or live, to keep or give,

The flesh in'th heart is tender and real

Like a truth to deny, 

when a fellow smile lies,

I will not drown in thy mercy

I will not let Ambition flee thee.
