The war machine rages on.
I try to fight it everywhere
Both inside and out.
I plead my case to the Gods
For them to dismount War
From atop his mount.
Aren't they aware
I still have my own battles
To fight within?
Lady Justice
Promises to fight by my side.
But that bitch is still blind.
How the fuck can she fight for me
When her sword strikes upon me
More than my enemy?
So here I am,
Fighting for my life
In a useless war
That rages on.
So here I am,
Fighting on every front
Trying to survive
Every enemy both
Within and without.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
