Perhaps

It’s been a while since I last wrote With my demons at bay I’ve started to cope Yet still there are times when the rays of hope Fail to shine through the clouds I coax This isn't bad nor is this the end But another passing of a passed done trend Of mine I once owned but now I borrow Of the sadness of others… I feel so hollow To the point when remedies bring back the loop Of times i’ve survived and didn't want to live through There is no message in the words you read Just a sad young man wanting to be heard Through an invisible audience I crave to need With the acknowledgement of the unknown I make myself be heard The battles we face against the mightiest of foe Have left me damaged with feelings so low The greatest of threat comes from within When your mind turns against you it seems impossible to win Yet win you must in order to live on If i’d just given up i’d definitely be gone I’d have to slit my wrists or O.D instead To have all my struggles slain and put to rest Sadly however I continue to fight To see the light of another day, takes all my might
