THE BATLLE

The battle has been lost,

She has given in again,

The demon has won,

He now owns her,

Has control over her every move and is inside her head,

She is fighting for her life,

Holding on,

She starts to slip,

Barely holding on,

She continues to fight,

No matter the struggle,

Even after the times she gets up and kicked back down again,

And it happens every time,

But eventually she gives up,

She has been left for dead,

Bleeding and broken,

Barely breathing,

Feeling lost and alone,

Taking what she knows will be her last breaths,

She wishes she could apologize,

Give her everything to the ones she has hurt,

Fix the wrong she has done,

Undo the damage,

Reverse the clock,

Go back in time,

Make herself forget the wrong she has done,

Erase the guilt,

And all the pain that comes along with it,

Dig herself out of the trenches,

Take back her life,

Take over control again,

Steer herself in the right direction,

Take the right road,

All the doors are closed,

And she doesn't know what’s behind them,

But she knows that every door she has opened has been another struggle,

Another mountain to climb,

Which just breaks her down even more,

But at the same time it makes her stronger,

The more she struggles,

The more she learns.

A lot of sadness and misery going on in this piece, but with a touch of hope at the very end. Very nice. You expressed the emotions very well.

Thank you, as I have said to another member, I tend to base my poetry on my past or present experiences and I ALWAYS put a lot of emotion into them, I feel like that makes it easier for people to relate and appreciate the piece more.

This was written so convincing that I suspected it might be from experience, but I didn't want to say so without knowing.

Oh, I understand. I like writing my poetry so that people can relate to it. I feel like people appreciate reading things when they can relate to it. You know, at least that's how it is for me.
