Struggle

Struggle to breathe.
Struggle to survive.
Struggle to love.
Struggle to find yourself.

Air evaporates around you,
Limp with exhaustion.
Feeling ten feet under water,
Continuing to try to keep your head above it.

Like running for your life,
Pain exists through your entire body.
Blood pumps through your body,
And you are strong but you feel so weak.

To even begin to love others,
You must love yourself.
Looking in the mirror,
I can’t help but hate everything I see.

Wrapped in a warp of confusion,
Trying to hold onto any solid ground around.
Falling off and into a same pattern,
No different from anyone else.

Struggle to breathe.
Struggle to survive.
Struggle to love.
Struggle to find yourself.




Author's Note: I've been going through an enormous amount lately and I was able to vent my emotions as well as show my double self and how I feel about it, showing how Jekyll feels about his double self as well.
