I flee in fear as the enemy grows near, I stumbled as a bullet passes my ear. I stand, I turn running away with a tear, I fall down as if I was hit with a spear.
I took on this war a long time ago, With myself I had hoped that I could grow. I lay down beginning to rot away, The hours passed as I begin to fade.
I wake up and I see these wounds of mine, Glowing as if I was filled with such life. Slowly my wounds begin to heal and fade, And such I begin to fight another day.
Never did I knew that that day drew near, As I remember those days fleeing in fear. Now I stand and fight my demonic night, And I shall die with my tears shining bright.
I lay in this self-made grave from a self-made war, Yet again my heart glows as if being revived. I faced myself and gave myself a scar. Yet it was healed by an angel from afar.
Inspiration from a post I saw about the phenomenon of the "Angel's Glow" during the American Civil War. I have applied it to my battle with myself.
