I am not weak

Darkness in my heart,
the emotions scare me.

Thoughts that I don't want,
swirl in my brain.

Unwanted worries,
that make me hurt inside.

Tireless days,
that all in end in tears.

I am powerless.
I have no strength to win.

But I can't give in.
No matter how long it takes.

Somehow I will stand tall,
and face that which I am most afraid.

Then one day,
I will walk with no weight,
on my shoulders,
of my own powerlessness.
