• The daily battle •

It is the darkest, deepest place one can travel to alone,

A solo journey filled with struggles and groans.

Every day is a new battle against the same foe,

But the enemy fights back with psychological blows.

It creeps up on you in your most vulnerable state,

Especially when there's no one around who can relate.

Thoughts in your mind begin to swirl and swell,

Which drag you into your own subconscious hell.

Figments and entities from your past

Serve as the pain, which you can't outlast.

Finally sleep always comes as a welcomed friend,

But it the morning the ceaseless battle begins yet again.
