A low blow

some would say

my lights go out

I hit the hay

a sucker punch

right to the head

just one more

then I'll be dead

one, two t,hree

the ref counts

four, five, six

my head pounds

I stand up

the adrenaline runs right threw me

I send a volley of many blows

I can’t control my rage

no one knows

they can say what they want to say

but I will fight for all the days
