A battle rages forth within my soul Endlessly vicious and taking its toll My greatest fears coming to fight Sending my world into eternal night Named for my weaknesses, their strength is true Depression and self-loathing to name a few They know just where to strike Inflicting pain upon my psych A battle rages forth within my soul But few allies I was able to enroll Intelligence and kindness among them For from these two my power does stem They ready their weapons and prepare for battle Ready to slaughter my fears like cattle My fears laugh heartily, doubting my resolve Unknowing that 'tis they I will dissolve A battle rages forth within my soul Each of my allies knows his role Slaying that which keeps me from life Ending that which causes me strife My fears have been silenced for today Dormant, but not forever away Again they will come to cause me torment Come to cause my emotions to again dissent [This message has been edited by Mistikman (edited 03-11-2000).] |

This is getting interesting. Being a graphics fiend, I'd like to see what images you would put with these verses. Good job! |

Why thank you Ms. deVine, for being the only person to respond, heh. I love comic book style artwork(like marvel comics, not snoopy and such) dealing with midieval battles with demons and dragons, so those would be the sort of images I would assassiate with this little triad of poems I wrote. |
