Battle

Battles fought within the darkness of my soul.

Demons lurking in the corners waiting to engulf me whole.

Fragments of past regret taint all that I do.

Despair reigns victorious, no mercy here for you. 

Pain of life lingers, filling my veins with sorrow.

Never find closure, tomorrows dark tomorrow.

Journey's taken through a tangled road of lies and strife.

No sign of healing, just a silent heart that cries.

Desert storm rages on within this desolate mind.

Dim light blooms as hope is left behind.

Tender shoots reaching out for something that's gone.

Soul reeling from this battle thrown.
