My Fight

Here I sit alone once more
As I try to win the war. 
Once again the devil has won. 
Challenging who I have become. 
Saying things I try not to believe 
But some days it is hard not to listen. 
The sleepless nights and racing thoughts. 
The loneliness and tears shed 
Leaves me questioning relationships and what they mean. 
Who can you trust in this game? 
Turn to friend’s in your darkest times.
 Praying they will understand this other life. 
As I pull myself back up. 
I know Gods got my back

"Who can you trust in this game?" I felt this poem. I think you already know the answer to this question. You're just not willing to accept the ugly reality. I don't think I am either.
