There is a battle
Raging within me
Look into my eyes
What do you see

I am strong
Fit and able
Yet it tugs at me
Like a taut cable

I do not like
What I must do
But I will not quit
Till this is through

The battle rages
Every day
Though I am tired
It won't go away

I have a heart
How it does hurt
I wish that all
Could see thier worth

Sometimes I hang
My head in shame
I am not better
Yet we're not the same

I fight for what
Is right and true
I ignore the pain
To help protect you

I've moved around
From place to place
You don't understand
I see in your face

I cannot abide
All the disrespcet
And so my duty
I will not neglect

I am so tired
I've fought so long
Against the odds
Against what's wrong

A day will come
When I must rest
I hope God knows
I did my best

Beautiful write! If we all did our best and tried as hard as you there'd be a lot less pain in the world. Keep it up!

That was awesome....competition I see. That was really a good read. We could put a book together. Hell for that matter why not a book of JSH members of poetry???

Thank you kind sir, curtseyflowerforyou

I would love to put a book together!

I have been thinking about getting published when I have enough together. I also thought of putting a book together for my brother and filling it with pictures of him.

That would be a good idea for all of it....and bowing to the dear lady.
