One's Mind is a Battlefield

One's Mind is a Battlefield 

One's mind is a Battlefield, 

But strength  transforms in the smoke,

Intellect to breathe. 

Through  chaos when old fears insults.

The war inside ain't quiet- is quick-witted,

It's real-

Until now resilience occurs in the places

Doubt tries to rip-off. 

Shadows lure from corners, 

Anxiety creeps like a thief,  even so

Truth stands guard, grounding beliefs.

One derives in the midway of the mess,

Rooted and aware, turning every mental

Clash into proof of staying here.

This isn't just existing the Battle-

It's reshaping the terrain,  

Building  power from struggles, judgment 

Calm in the tension  resilience emerges

Motion, a Victory  reclaimed, 

A soilder of self-worth marching concluded

What once felt fierce.
