Title: This Fight
by Tom from East Sussex | in writing, poetry, dark
In a time where life seems so hard,
Where danger lurks around every corner,
When pain is so great it's set to kill,
And every forced laugh is a bloody slaughter.
When two wrongs do make a right,
And a town so damned it's built upon hate,
Where life can easily slip into downward spiral,
And life is controlled by the despair of fate.
Grief has the power to torment your soul,
Destruction erupts and devestation applies,
Anger burns so fierce you cry inside,
The only hope left fades and dies.
You could struggle and fight,
And make it half way,
But the pain that flares inside us all,
Could corrupt the world in a single day.
So let's turn hate against fear,
And use pain to create hope,
For I am by your side,
To walk with you this tight rope.
I was inspired to write this when a close friend of mine was suffering from serious issues at home and I wanted to let him know that i was there for him and that he wasn't alone. It got me into thinking about life and how the feeling of being alone can destroy someone, it brought all my fears and feelings about loneliness to the surface and i had to write them down. These feelings lead me to write this. Hope you enjoy!!
