Forever at War

The war began a long time ago,

Between myself,

Between others.

And despite all the battles that I've won,

I have not won the war.

I see no end in sight,

Neither does my hope,

Which fades more and more with each passing day.

I'm beginning to think,

I will forever be lost in this battle,

Forever fighting,

And never ending,

Until I fall with one last shuddering breath.
