Image for the poem I Fight...The Fear

I Fight...The Fear

I am angled..
down... in between
my anguish...and rage

Flushed with the heat
of the unbelievable...
I become delirious...
as Night Terrors manifest

I wrestle the unseen by most
beast...and fiends...
that whisper in the dark...

They allow me...no rest.

Yet I bellow curses back
at them...
Those filthy shadows...
They have stolen one
that doesnt belong to them...

Not knowing...she was an Angel
in disguise...

I am wedged...
inside this space...
of Inconvienient Truth...

Trying to make a deal
with Karma...
Asking...
If we can call it all...
Even...
All debts paid...
For some losses...
The price...
Is too great.
I wake...
drenched in sweat..
Fighting the shadows
Fighting the demons...
Fighting the tears...
Fighting...
always...

Fighting...
to not be overwhelmed
to not be overtaken
to NOT be moved ...

Though I walk through
the valley...
I...
Will
Not
Fear
