FIGHT

This is me trying to be everything I wanted to be

I was 18

I was a Marine

I had already had some traumas

Not long after this it would become worse

Not long after this I would make bad choices

Then I would wear a mask

Pretend everything was good

Make more bad choices

I would try to find my place in this world

I would float around 

I would push and pull

I build walls to look uglier than I felt

It never worked

The walls just got me sick

Now I am battling to survive

Battling to heal

Battling to not feel so much 

I am FIGHTING to live

I am FIGHTING to know love
