A war is raging on inside,
deep within the darkest mind,
trenches dug by her own hand,
a metal razor, piercing the land,
digging refuge for emotions unfelt,
caught in the crossfire, a persistent pelt,
of hateful thoughts and doubts,
bombing her in sudden bouts,
attacking with force and skill,
the aim to unravel and convince to kill,
trying to turn her against herself,
declining in sanity and mental health,
undercover of darkness, she tries to escape,
but her efforts are futile, she has to wait,
her release not helping her win this fight,
she's losing, she knows but she's holding on tight,
day by day the enemy is closing in ,
but she can't ask for help, it's a force from within,
invisible to even the best trained eye,
trying it's hardest to make her die.
