Elucidating Questions

Sometimes I forget I’m a warrior

Fighting every day to just be

Getting up from bed is a great feat,

One that I continue to achieve no matter how much my body pleas

Sometimes I forget that I’m fighting these thoughts

Sometimes I forget they’re not me

Chin up soldier

That should have pissed me off,

Why should I have to live and be a soldier and whatnot

What I felt instead was the warrior in me stand up

I’m a fighter

And I’m a damn good one

I wonder what the world would be like if everyone thought like me?

Would it be better?

Or just another hellscape?

They sleep

The warriors

No one sees the fight in me

No one sees me giving 100%, 100% of the time

If they knew how hard I’m fighting

Just to present as normal

It’s a battle of mind, body, soul, and spirit and it’s two against two.

Body and mind my enemies

Soul grows weary

Spirit cheers it back to life

I am a warrior

I just get so caught up in the fighting I forget
