Exhaustion
Picking up two and feeling the new unbalance of my stance
My body is shivering
The powder I shot is now leaving a nasty taste under my tongue
The breeze continuously blowing through the holes in the walls
Readjusting my feet while looking into the mirror
Watching the figure stare back at me
Feeling the sweat drip down my pale skin
My body took a massive turn
Once was chilled and now quite toasty
My skin adjusting and focusing on a dot on the barn board wall
The headphones covering my ears and crossing the top of my skull
My hair tied in the tightest knot
Rather than tickling my neck and falling before my chocolate eyes
Nothing else is important than the items before me
I can feel my muscles tensing and relaxing while I shift my limbs
They always say the pain is for the gain
But I am here because everyone is fake
They think that a pretty smile does it all
This place is the only one that doesn’t lie, deceit, and pretend
This place is the realist thing to me
