Ode To Thy Self....
Who is fighting with the monster deep within
Trying to win this fight
That has taken over with no end
Looking for the light
To guide me through this battle
Been dealing with this for a long time now
To scared to let in out
Tormenting me with a shake and a rattle
Hoping someone would save me so I can be found
Then, I would have room to shout
How could this be? This battle within me...
I have been through so much misery
Please someone help me to be free
Then, I can have the victory
No more lies and torment
Just me only-no battle within me
Then, I can be happy again
Then, I can have some enjoyment
No more reasons to try to flee
No more doubt that I can’t win
This battle has been inside for awhile
But, I have the courage to stand up now
Now, I have a big smile
The monster has been defeated and he’s down
I knew I would be found
O more chains, I’m free
I’m unrestrained, now
It just took me awhile
No one could save me but ME
NOW I HAVE THE VICTORY!!!!!!
