An Endless Battle

I can not breathe, the room is shaking

I can feel my spirit breaking

Far away, my mind is drifting

I can feel my viewpoint shifting 

An empty body, sitting there

Sunken eyes, and absent stare

An endless battle I can not win 

A worthless life sustained by sin 

I can not stand on my two feet 

I have accepted my defeat

I wrote this poem in hopes of encouraging teen to seek help if needed and to inform them that they are not alone.  Many other teenagers are struggling in different ways as well.
