The Internal Conflict

The Internal Conflict

A Poem by Celestia Benita Singh
"

I have to admit..I am no Pro.And this is something I wrote about something I was going through..So this is super personal.I'm a wee bit nervous about sharing things but here I am being Courageous!!

"
Strongest of all
Mighty Soldier.
Been through a fall,
Made her stronger.

They spoke ill of him,
So She'd feel better.
"His soul is dim,
I wish He never met her." 

She sat there fighting,
All her battles.
All by herself,
with guitars and rattles.

It's not the battles,
that broke her soul.
It was WAR,
That stole her show.

The world watched her crumble,
They did the best they could.
But all they did was mumble,
And that didn't do her good.

Everyone knew her plight,
But No one knew her fight.
The war that killed our soldier,
was the war she fought with herself.

Great poem! I loved thw word choice you had as well as the flow of the piece. It had a sort of rythm to it that drew me in. This poem has a mood of strive and depression, but it's not dark. This is a very fine line that a lot of people fall short of or cross over, you on the other hand did it just 'write' *chuckles at cheesy joke* great job! :D

You're quite welcome.
The pain that's lost behind perception. Wonderfully stirring work
