Powerful introspection outta the inner conflicting battle waging wars of righteousness vs the darkness ever.. i loved the images you draw here  .. the deep spiritual angle to this one is in embed.. the fiercely intense depiction of the struggle as you say in the last  two verses..  winner poem dear Damian Xx

Oh lordy...I know this movement. The anxiety keeps me on target for exercise, I swear. Is it because we're overthinkers, do ya reckon? My cats know to seek high ground when I'm in the zone. Nobody wants a tail squished in passing. Another great musing, my friend

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write, my friend. I think it possibly could be a huge part of it, I've always paced, I'm also fidgety, I even walk while sleeping. I don't get up, just my legs constantly move at night. Been that way since I was a kid, but it gets more pronounced as I get older. Mine would too. Especially when I was a drinker, sometimes I woke up in the floor to cat kisses and biscuit kneading. lol. Glad those days are behind me, but I do miss my cats. Appreciate you.

Dear D,

Nothing is ever simple when unloading inner thoughts that have been building. I really appreciated the depth of this write and bringing it to a conclusion where you stare down the demon.
Excellent write. H🌷
