Inner Fight


A girl wanting more,

Struggled with self confidence,

Bound to her own thoughts.

 

Thoughts that destroyed her.

Shouting that there is no hope,

Refusing to stop.

 

Yet something remained,

Deep down inside of herself,

That managed to live.

 

This tiny object,

Kept her from doing something,

That she would regret.
