Warrior

I feel an emptiness

like a balloon, floating aimlessly full of transparent thoughts

All I see is dark, All I hear is sad, All I touch is damp

I feel an ache in the depths of my body

A silent deadly killer

non-existent yet constantly there

slowly eating my mind in worries and foul thoughts

and slowly thoughts of death follow me

leaving footprints that never wash away

I wait hoping

yet all hope drains away

and I cling to the last of it

seeing my only happiness wash away

yet death close at bay

I run through a dark maze in a fog with no gate way out

and the entrance closes

and I feel the darkness take over me

draining every last drop of sunshine from me

Yet I survive

for I am and always will be

proudly wearing my scars

as

A warrior
