'i Go On An All Out Attack'

My illness sometimes pushes me, I decide to push it back

My illness fails to retaliate because I go on an all out attack

My mission is pure and simple, I pride myself on dedication

Fighting back requires 95 percent, the other 5 percent is my medication

I've worked tirelessly hard these past few months to get into this position

I'm positive, I never give up, I'm full of hope and ambition

My message is simple, I'm here to help, fellow warriors you're not alone

In order for each one of you to grow, you must first leave your comfort zone

Set yourself some targets, it's so crucial that you have a goal

Developing strength, heart, fight and hope helps you to climb out of a hole

In order for me to remain well, I must have a plan in place

I must be tactile, I must be precise, It's important I stay in the race

The distance between me and depression is increasing in length every day

When it comes to the message I am telling my peers, I know exactly what to say

Each poem I write is a weapon, each word the ammunition

My aim is true, it pulls me through as a much welcomed addition

Do not get me wrong my friends, I will pay if I get complacent

I'm calculated with each move I make, I must not get impatient

There's nothing special about me, I just refuse to quit

I have passed the acid test, I've proved that I'm mentally fit

Poetry is such a powerful tool, it allows me to express myself

Each poem I write tops up my mind and promotes sound mental health

Before I wrap this up, there is something I'd like to say

This poem is for my peers, I hope it's brightened up your day

This is great , I am praying for you my friend, you are very talented in your writing, it comes from the heart and fight within you, your soul that seeks that peace and love not of this world, to many allow this wicked world to turn them into something they are not and happiness will never be found,. Love yourself first and be who you are
