In the shadows of my mind, where darkness erupts,
Intrusive whispers echo, yeah, they disrupt.

Who am I in this tale untold?
A self-made lie, a story I hold.
Lost in thoughts, I roam this maze,
****** path or anxiety, in my mind im crazed.
Wandering deep within my soul,
Endless wonders, battles take their toll.

In this vast world, I sit and ponder,
How do you halt this mental thunder?
Endless possibilities, they taunt and tease,
Yet, they won't define me, won't bring me to my knees.

An untold saga, battles every single day,
In the midst of chaos, I find my way.

It is what it is, with meaning deep,
I've overcome much, my promises I keep.
Prepared for any battle life might throw,
No, you won't see me rattled, I've learned to grow.

In the present that's sown, I stand tall,
Can't change what's happening, gotta deal with it all.

The untold tale of every man's strife,
Striving for excellence, defending family, and risking life.
We put on a brave face, don't let it show,
Hold it in so your family can't feel your woes.

That's the story etched in every man's core,
Facing battles, yet leaving the story untold....
