A Few Words From A Silent Warrior (Part 1)

Life is full of dreams and hopes,
Fears and hate and sadness.
Death and guilt and happiness,
Lust and aspirations.
These things come upon you,
Day to day,
Minute to minute,
Second to ever longing second.
Each of these can approach you,
At the blinding speed of light.
And some can leave you just as quick,
But some leave you very slowly.
Then there are those,
That stay lodged in your heart forever.

Now when one of these gets to you,
You can handle it very easy.
When two or three jump on board,
Then things get a little harder.
When all of these attach themselves,
Deep within your heart.
They rip apart your mind and soul,
And can get pretty nasty.
When all of these attack you,
In small little chunks.
Things look nasty at first,
But things can improve.

It is when all of these attack you,
With giant-like strength,
That is when things go wrong.
These tremendous forces of might,
Pull at your every seam.
You can either be torn apart,
Or sucked up deep inside.
Either way things go very wrong.   ¶ 11:48 PM
