Weary of this battle

 

 

The hard fought battle is not soon won

Everything has only begun to go wrong

I started out strong and stayed true

Your strength kept me from stumbling the whole way through

Now I cry as swords pierce my side, my friends all die

You’re the only thing left that keeps me alive

Oh, Lord, when will you come and take my life?

I’ve waited so long, this armor wears weary

The demons get bigger every time I wipe my eyes to see clearly

The setting sun leaves me wishing this battle was done

Oh, Lord, hope stays on the run

Come back, come back and save me

I wait eagerly

"Oh, Lord, when will you come and take my life?"

This line does well in the center, 6 lines above, 6 lines below.
Also, it's nice that the lines around it rhyme without being cheesy.
Seems very carefully crafted, and I enjoyed every letter of it.
