Fighting Back

I will fight back,
I will overcome,
I will defeat my emotions,
No, I won’t let them tear me apart,
No, I won’t let them pull me under.

Why do I continue this fight,
From which there is no visible escape,
This fight that so many take,
This fight that so many lose?

A fight where only the determined can win,
A fight that I can win,
A fight that I will win,
A fight that I am determined to walk away from,
A fight, that I am sure can’t destroy me.

I have all I shall ever need,
I have the strength,
I have the goal,
I have the determination,
I don’t have the one.

I don’t have the one,
Who will be there to pick me back up,
To help me along the path to victory,
Who will be there for me through it all,
That one, who I will come through for when I’m needed
