Daily Battles

A Battle Against Inner Turmoil

By Ravi DPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Shadows whisper in my wake

Their tendrils reaching, ever near

Each step I take, the ground might break

Beneath the weight of growing fear

Silence screams in deafening tones

Echoing through empty halls

These walls of doubt, now overthrown

As anxiety's empire falls

Time slips through trembling hands

Like sand through broken glass

Future's haze in present stands

While ghosts haunt from the past

Breath catches in a tightened chest

As panic starts to bloom

In this internal war, no rest

Just thoughts that loom and loom

Yet in this chaos, a spark ignites

A flicker of resilience burns

Through darkest days and sleepless nights

A fragile hope returns

This battle rages on and on

No victory in sight

But still, I rise to face the dawn

And brave another fight
