Burnout - the Silent Thief

Raw writing- with errors

Burnout

It is a silent thief

You live for the adrenaline rush

You are invincible

You are at the top

What's one more day

Week, month

I'll rest later

Then your body forces you to rest, with a dreamless, black, inky sleep. It's no way to live you say

You are at the top

You are off running again

The waves crash into you again and again

One day you realize there's nothing left

It's a fatigue that won't leave

What was your dream and passion chewed you up and spit you out

Then you are riddled with doubt

They are in the spot light

You've lost your fight

No longer at the top

Because you couldn't stop

Now the reins are passed on

Those days are gone

Please don't be the fool

Don't let what happened to me happen to you
