The War Within

War Within
I am supposed to be happy, on the brink of something new, exciting and life changing, a moment of unprecedented magnitude;
but here i am sulking, sad, angry and confused, it's as if happiness and sadness are waging a pitched battle in my mind;
i sat watching, numb, cold and powerless, as my spirit tried desperately to broker peace, i feel like i am trapped, stuck in the middle;
scared inside, the pain refuses to let go, as my world comes crashing down from within, i try desperately to claw my way back in, for one more attempt at life;
a life that has all promises, a life that is mine to live, and a life that is meant to happy, and joyous;
i do not know how, i tried to know why, but the more i tried, the deeper i plunged into this war within myself;
