Battle

Reaching desperately for the Light

Even as the Dark sinks sharp claws in

Fighting to grab hold of the Positive

While the Negative screams its 

Hateful lies into my mind

Tossing and turning

Throughout the unending Night

Searching for nothing more than restful Sleep

Yet my mind insists on Fitful

Remind myself over and over:

Just focus on the Good

Block out the Bad

For This Too Shall Pass…
