a light in the dark

been so long, since i felt alive. how can i believe, in this tired body of mine?, chasing myself, into the night, will it all matter when i close my eyes?, have i won the race?, embraced all my pain, told my family enough, that i value our name. and if the weight of the world, pulls me from my feet, drags me to the ground, my chest trying to breathe, i just wanna be known, as the man who didn't sink, as the man who didn't sink.
