The Battle
The acidic tears burning my eyes.
The desert dry lips.
The dissatisfaction with myself.
The dripping red liquid.
The earthquake like movement of my hands.
The thought of being worthless suffocating me.
The joints tighten as the rage runs through my veins.
The headaches pound as my brain swells with confusion.
The obnoxious talking making my teeth grind.
The demons attacking my soul.
The constant need of music.
The battle wounds stitching back together.
The sadness consumes me to where I can't move.
The life I used to know lost deep within.
The empty feeling of nothingness.
The brain going numb.
The white flag surrendering.
The demons taking over.
The battle no one can help you win.
The battle between you and your demons.
