TIRESOME

A tiresome tale told far too often,
A tiresome tale best left untold
A story from the past that I recall
Of those, who were so bold

An endless tale of too much conflict
And angry times that bring the fight
A tale that teaches how the sunrise
Somehow still, can bring the night

A story from the endless struggle
Found inside the timeless game
A cycle that remains unbroken,
A road that leads us back to same
