The Attack
These words are like a flood,
Flowing through my blood.
They reach my mind and begin their attack;
I just wish I could take it all back.
This is the side of me that makes my life hard.
Life keeps playing this card,
And I have a bad deck.
I am starting to feel like a complete wreck.
Nothing can stop this reaction from occurring;
Together everything is blurring.
I am again surrounded;
My mind is being pounded.
I just beg for a day that does not end like this,
One that is full of bliss.
But I guess I am out of wishes;
I am thrown to the side with the dirty dishes.
My adventures are unsuccessful,
And my trail will be disrespectful.
I will soon be locked away.
My mind will become the prey,
Just as it is tonight.
Either fight
And stand my ground,
Or be pushed down.

This poem, like most of my poetry, attempts to reach out to those who are in a time of despair and feel alone. I hope to show them that they are not alone in their battles by providing what it was like for me when I was going through my own struggles in a powerful, poetic way.
