The Fight Within
We often strangle ourselves within,
Quietly, choked and suffocated within.
Dare no one can read it,
Not even a close one dared to feel it.
The load that has been weighing heavy,
The grueling and strenuous task to carry.
We ignore the pain and soreness to feel less petrified.
No one sees how much we have sacrificed.
To bridle the feeling and win the fight within.
