The skies, slowly darken
As the winds howl inside
No hope is felt, seen, heard
The clouds, ripped open
Rain drowns the tears
A call rings out, no answer
The days, never ending
Desperation ever grows
No help in sight, alone
The night, grows dim
Blackness fills the void
Wounds are festering, bleeding
The storm, rages on
Tides will never turn
Souls shrivel, dead
The trees, lose leaves
Darkness covers the land
No birds sing, silence
The blade, glints silver
Determination wavers
One more day, breathe
The tunnel, slowly ends
A song is heard
A memory beckons, closer
The waves have receded
Fists begin to unclench
Pressure releases, freedom
The thoughts are clear
Direction is chosen
Feet move, one more step
The sun shines through
Clouds make way for sky
Decisions been made, forward
The head is held high
Stubbornness grows with each breath
Depression lies, defeated
The course is now set
No way to turn back
Freedom will be had, again
The battle is over
Casualties scatter the ground
War is not over, yet
I WILL WIN!
