Inner Strength

I thought
It couldn't get worse.
I thought
I was strong enough
If it ever did.

I was wrong.

Everything is falling,
Crumbling into
A thousand pieces.

One little thing
Summons the tears.
Two little things
And the demon screams at me.
Three little things
And I want
It all to end.

I'm weak,
I know that.
I can only be strong
For so long.
After that,
The strength
Diminishes daily.

I must try my hardest
To not give in.
I must try my hardest
To be strong within.
