My Battle

Quiet moments
quiet thoughts
I go deep inside my head

Searching for
the inner me
I wonder if she's dead.

Digging...Prying
facing the truth
admitting to myself
I'm not who I wanna be
I wanna be somebody else!

Laughing...Joking
Boldly lying
telling you to your face
I never really needed you
and put you in your place.

Squirming...Sobbing
Shrinking...Dying
Hiding behind myself.
Thinking of ways to take it all back
and excuse it as needing help.

Well we all need it...some of us get it. You showed the way.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

very good write,,,,

A voice of honesty
   is treasured
more than voices
   of flattery
