It is a cold dark night
Tonight the moon
Decided to betray his plight
Kind of similar to this pain I hold

And as I walk this night
I hear
The stalking footsteps of
This pain hurrying near

I start into a run until I reach my house
When I made it home I took a seat
In the kitchen and slowly tapped my feet
Contemplating how much I don’t want this night to repeat

This pain is pivotal
And this pain is now
But I hear patience is a virtue

And I know
The pain I hold is worthy of attack
But It’s no downhill battle
And proves its worth by fighting back

So I know the mornings going to hurt
But fuck it, with this yeager bomb
I will launch a full blown attack
At my ever growing pains
For this patience is something I lack

If you are trying to be serious, don't periodically break down into extremely casual language. It looks sloppy and any investment the reader has put into the piece at the mention of pressing topics is lost. I may get what you are trying to say here, but you need to plan out an extended metaphor that is more clear, or at least make your bland description of your actions a little more lively (and likely more succinct).
