My mind is a battlefield,
Fighting a war within
Thoughts that never yield,
A constant battle I can't win.
They come in like a storm,
Raging, wild and free
Trying to take me over,
Devouring the essence of me.
Insecurities and doubts,
Like arrows aimed at my heart
Fear, anger, and pain,
Ripping my soul apart.
But I refuse to surrender,
To these voices in my head
I'll fight with all my might,
Until they are finally dead.
I'll arm myself with strength,
And courage as my shield
I'll unleash my creativity,
And let my imagination yield.
For in these moments of darkness,
Is when my light will shine
And the fire within me,
Will be too bright for them to define.
So let them come, these thoughts,
For I am ready to face
With each battle, I grow stronger,
And my doubts will slowly erase.
For I am taking back control,
Of this body, mind, and soul
And no matter what they try,
They can never take me whole.
For I am more than just my thoughts,
I am a fighter, a warrior, a friend
And I will not let them win,
For this is my story, and I refuse to let it end.
So let them try, these thoughts,
To take over me
For I am stronger than they'll ever be,
And I will always be free.
