A poem.

I wrote this when I was a teenager..

I am in a trench,
Watching myself in action.
Life hanging on hold
No longer at full throttle,
Waiting for battle.
Fighting the hidden darkness,
Silently screaming.
Beyond the voids Vail,
Lies all my heartfelt desires.
Numbing my senses,
Leaving me sluggish, drained
Am I switched off?
A struggle to demonstrate
The act of living.
