The Battle

by Meika   Apr 13, 2017


Look past my smile and you'll see, you don't really know me. I've shed many tears for every emotion, I guess you could say I'm kinda broken. Even if I tried I couldn't possibly explain why, but I'm done trying to hide, its time you all should find it. A dark hole in my heart or maybe just my head, a place I'm lost in and sometimes even found dead. No counselor can help, no therapist has tried...I'm just too much I guess, not worth their time. Some who love me don't see I'm alone, this battle I'm in I must fight on my own. There is no cure, its not really a disease its just not taken seriously. I scratch and claw and fight for air, just trying to breathe in this storm of despair; I'm about out of strength so this may be goodbye, at least in the rain you can't see me cry...

    Another deep and heavy write from you here. A smooth, consistent flow and great rhyming really emphasize the utter heartbreak that weighs heavily on every word. Once again, my heart feels for you. These are not easy or pleasant emotions to carry-they can be such a heavy burden and make life seem hopeless- but you never have to carry them on your own. Please know you are not alone, and feel free to reach out to me anytime! Take care and keep moving forward- one step at a time.
