The Battle

Walls starting to rise to avoid such a disease.
It doesn't mind your feelings, it'll eat you up with ease. 
Starting to protect myself to avoid this infection.
I'll fight to the death, just to show it rejection.
Trying to control my mind, feeding off my body, 
Searching to devour my soul to leave me as nobody.
I'm in control, which you clearly don't know.
Before you can even touch me, I will have already killed you nice and slow.
Give me your best shot, but just know you'll never win. 
You think you can overpower me, I'll prove you wrong, come on and step right in.

A very descriptive battle. It would seem your foe is a dangerous kind if underestimated. I enjoyed reading this Maricel. Wonderful work -Eman
