Nuclear Winter

Images burned into my head too unbearable to manage and control to lead a normal life without consequence. Life maintained through pills and counseling with guidance on this long and unkind path of my existence. These thoughts to intrusive and invade the mind without warning causing a battle within like the axis to the allies of Europe’s great war. Happiness to sad with smiles so false, the eyes, the only passage to truth found deep within the catacombs of the soul are sought. Memories established in these catacombs clutching my soul bearing down upon me leaving me breathless with the will to live out of reach of embracing. An ongoing battle, day to day, incompliant within my mind is this unseen enemy that is the silent killer of millions. This assassin overwhelmed and crushed the innocent victims damned to spend eternity in their own mental nuclear winter. My personal hell.
