A BATTLE WITHIN

I wasn't looking for a war but here I am/
face to face with everything that threatens to break me/
set of broken dreams followed by a series of regrets/
& a feeble mind which still plays the same old cassettes

I am slowly taking my time to realize/
the mistake every event reminds me of/
but If only my heart agrees to cooperate/
I could gather enough courage,
to let go of it all

if I've to see through then I don't have no choice/
but to get rid of everything that blurs out my vision/
if I've to function with a new pair of lens/
then it's the sins in my shadows/
which I must first cleanse

I can't be running away from all that still follows me/
I've to confront realities which i haven't before/
I can't be dodging missiles that are launched my way/
I've to be static & take some control

behind closed eyes where thoughts make noise/
the struggle is for real to be stationary in dark/
one after the other as they pierce through peace/
It's a torturous journey, a battle within
