This battle has become one I'm not so sure I can win. Retaliation has always been my area of expertise. I sharpen my words before I pierce. Bringing an end to things that never had the chance to start. My attack strategy is almost perfected. So how do I fight back? My thoughts of hope stay trailing behind me, But our distance has only grown. I'm starting to lose sight. My mind and reality have become intertwined. I don't know where I am. The energy to fight is no longer ready at hand. I'm losing the fight against myself, That I never quite realized I started. .
