I am fighting a crucial battle Blood surrounds me It is not my blood It is the enemy’s blood My allies stand next to me Those special souls fighting To save my life Most of them I do not know Some of them are family Some of them are friends Most of them are strangers Wanting me to be me My mother fights beside me My brother joins her too My friends are charging With an unseen power My hope is forever growing The strangers aren’t strange Some of them are teachers Some of them are people I barely know Some of them are fans Of my poetry But they are all there Fighting a battle Helping me I know this may sound strange I know when I need help But this is not one of those times This is a battle I need to face myself I need not all the wicked weapons I need not guns or bombs I only need a strong will To save me from myself I need to fight to be different I need to be unique I don't want to be one in the line I don’t want to be another Barbie I guess that this will be The hardest battle I’ll ever fight Because I can’t hide Behind someone else And if I fail I cannot shift the blame If I fail, I lose myself To all the other clones But this is not some Movie Where all the endings Are happy This is reality Where you have to fight Just to be you "If I am an angel paint me with black wings"-Anne Rice |
