The Fight

Tony36

Emotional wounds run deep
As deep as a gorge

A river of sorrow and pain
Flows like a mighty wave
Destroying everything in its path

There is light
Though far away and dim

I must live each day one at a time
Fighting my wars
Destroying my enemies
Until the battle's won

Little by little
Inch by inch
I fight
Every victory getting closer
To the light

                  Cliche for sure, but the journey is the truth of the seeking, of the fight. Don't stop now.

                      I call it the ‘Valley of the dark”. It’s deep, dark and wide, it took years to cross. On the other side however I did find the light of my life. She lifted me up and out!
                      Great ✍️
