Old Struggles New Strength

Old Struggles New Strength

A Poem by Dante Balintyne

For some reason these old demons
Insist on showing face again
I had been fighting them for so long
I forgot how far back the victory has been
The war back then though was different you see
I have new family and new strength
To completely shatter your hold over me
I refuse to let you win
I refuse to let you think I will give in
Understand you are fighting a losing battle this time
This time my loving little sister is by my side!

I get the impression the old demons are depression and anxiety. The speaker indicates it is an ongoing struggle, but a new environment and added support seem to inspire confidence. The best of good fortune to you.
