THIN WALLS

SURROUNDINGS
CLOSE OFF
WITHIN THIN WALLS
INSULTS
AND ARGUING
DRAINING
NEGATIVE REMARKS
ALL WORDS
FROM THE MOUTHS
CARRY OVER
ACROSS INTO
MY INNER
SANCTUM
DISRUPTING
MY BLESSED
PEACE
I COUNTER
THEIR INSENSITIVE
WAYS
WITH THE STRENGTH
FROM EVERY
FIBER OF
MY BEING
I DON’T KNOW
THEM
NOR FROM MY
OBSERVATIONS
DO I
EVEN WANT TO
THE BOUNDARIES
I PERSEVERE
ENDURING TO
CONCENTRATE
TO CONQUER
THE DEMONS
AND FEARS
OF
THIS DARKNESS
SO OUTSIDE
MY COMFORTS
THE CHAOS
OF THAT WHICH
CURSED
YEARS PASSED
DO I TRAVEL
BEYOND
THESE WALLS
THAT SO LIMIT
AND THEIR WAYS
KNOWING ITS
ALL I CAN DO
INSOMNIA STRIKES
PUSHING
FARTHER
THE BOUNDARIES
OF THIS
THINKING
BRAIN
LOVING
KINDNESS
SHINES WITHIN
ALLOWING
SOME SLEEP
TO CARRY
FOR A FEW
HOURS
FOR I MAY NOT
BE ABLE
TO DO MUCH
TO CHANGE
THE SURROUNDINGS
BUT I CAN
TURN MY
MUSIC UP
DROWN THEM
IN MY MANTRAS
ERASE THOSE
NEGATIVE
THINGS WHICH
I HEAR
BY FOCUSING
ON WORDS
OF WISDOM
AND MOTIVATED
PARTS OF THOSE
WITHIN MY
HEART
TO SPREAD
LIGHT
AMONG THE DARK
PENETRATING
FEARS
WIPING IT CLEAN
TO BE STRONGER
THAN THIS
CONSTANT BATTLE
I FACE
WHICH SO DRAGS
THIS SOUL
THROUGH MUDDLED
FOG
SO STOPPING
THE POLLUTING
OF MY AIR WAVES
AND SORTING
THROUGH
THIS DISORDER
THAT DISRUPTS
EVERYTHING
AND THEIR
COMPLETE
DISREGARD
FOR FELLOW
HUMANITY
IT WILL NOT
CONQUER ME
I SHARE ALL
I AM BLESSED WITH
FROM
THE CHALLENGED
MISERY
SO NOT TO
ALLOW
THE DARKNESS
WHICH SO INVADES
MY BEING
TO BE MY
ENLIGHTENED
ABSOLUTION
WHILE HOLDING
DEAR ALL THOSE
WHICH
BOOST MY SPIRIT
UPLIFTING MY SOUL
TO SO OVERCOME
(BATTLES WITH
PTSD AND NEGATIVE
BEINGS
AROUND ME TO
SO OVERCOME IT
ALL)
