The sky is dark even if it morning
The wind blowing softly to hear
My bitter tears of self-mourning
Hidden to those who are near
My thoughts won’t stop racing
My breath is stuttering
My body is shaking
My health is faltering
My mind has become a prison with me the prisoner
My mind is like a one way radio
Negative thoughts come through
But positive thoughts are a no-go
A storm inside starts to brew
With no cover insight
The voices start to speak
They give me a fright
The future is bleak
My body is both my own and not at the same time
I want to reach out for help
But my pleads are ignored
My heart cries out a whimpering yelp
A cry to be adored
A wish to be let free of my mind
A prayer to be who I really am
But others still remain blind
To the hidden dam
Which hold all the secrets left untold
Secrets that have never been spoken
Memories left unshared
Mind and body left broken
Vision of life left impaired
A lost soul left wondering
If it will ever be found
Surroundings left thundering
But not a single sound
Is heard over the war waging inside
The war never has a true victor
As neither side ever gives up
No one can be the predictor
Of when the war will let up
For it truly never has an end
Only a slight pause
For each refuses to completely bend
But despite the cause
Of the darkness,light can still be found
