Overwhelming Strength From Within
What is this?
This unbearable toleration of uneasiness?
Unable to face the world from my current state
It’s creeping into my system
Now it’s taking over my soul
My soul is disappearing almost vanishing
My mind sends messages to my brain
Which makes me sweat from head to toe
I can feel my heat beating an abnormal amount of times
Hear blood being spilled in the background
But who cares as I weaken for every second that passes by
I have to be determined and fight this force holding me back
Even if I’m bounded by chains
Pricked by thorns
Not having a chance to say goodbye
Be regretful for
Losing who I love being slaughtered
With this ashen body, I can only do this
I will struggle through the chains with
My sweat and heat from my body causing the chains to rust
Even if pricked by thorns I will take them as a man and endure all the pain
Not even caring if I lose massive amounts of blood or
Feeling dizzy to the point of fainting
But my will is refusing to give up
Being branded, I must not waver or admit defeat
The thought of protection, being gone I must live on and not say goodbye
Since it’s only the beginning, and hope I can truly make them safe in our next life
With this last breath, I can say sorry and
Escape this suffering but my consciousness won’t allow me to

This is one of my darker brooding poems expressing how I can imagine a situation with dark thoughts which is another style I can make a concept with.
