Break Through


Hurt and held down by something that's not even tangible.
 
Some days it worsens and just seems unmanageable.
 
She kicks and she screams as she attempts to get out,
 
But at the end of it all, 
 
she just sees doubt.
 
Shes aware it's not reality, 
 
she knows it's not true,
 
But when her mind takes over, 
 
there's only little she can do.
 
So she waits for the light to brighten the way,
 
For when the light is present, 
 
darkness is astray.
 
Time will decipher what her next move will be,
 
But until then, 
 
keeping a positive mind set is key.
