Ironman

My god, my god, the end has come.
My insights into life are vivid, but now closed.
Friends once had, now lost.
Those who loved me, now lost.
My true purpose in life, lost.
I am Ironman.

Thoughtless, emotionless.
My true being consumed in one soul.
The love of that soul,
Leading to my lack of heart for those who care for me.
I wear leaden boots as I sink into eternity.
Regret chasing me into the abyss of death.
I am Ironman.

Visions shooting past me, what did I learn?
Greed and lust, nothing of value here.
My lessons in life aid me not in my flight towards styx.
Soon, I crash, soon, I'm gone,
I can no longer remember myself, hidden behind the deceit of subterfuge.
I am Ironman.

The bottom rushes toward me, I break through.
The flames lick my essence, I break through.
The cage binds me, for immorality racks my soul, escape impossible.
The tortures of darkness, a lack of being
Where am I? What am I? Who am I?
I am Ironman.
