The Fight Poem by Solomon Kobela

Another day another fight
I can barely throw a punch
I’m tired from this fighting
I’m tired

Again the world feels like it turned upside down
It feels like all my troubles decided to gather and infiltrate my inner being
I’m loosing myself in this battle
I’m losing my way in this

Back and forth all seems same
There is no way out
I’m stuck in it
I could scream from the bottom of my lungs
I can kick and fuss all I want I’m stuck in it

It’s hard to accept
I want to do things
I want to go places
I want to see things
But my mind is idle in this fight

It’s a fierce one,
Blood spat all over
Tears and sweat dripping
Pain and rage I feel,
They could be blinding me
But still
My life will not come to a standstill
I don’t wanna allow that
I can’t,
I MUST fight on
