The Battle Inside

The Battle Inside

A Poem by Jessica Slatton

There is a battle going on inside my head.  I want to ask the question that i need answers to.  But the battle continues.  I am battling with my voice.  every part of me says just say it, but i still find myself MUTE.  What should i do?  Should i just go for it?  I think I will.  I know i can.  All i have to do is find my voice.


I found it!


The battle is won, but the war is not over.  There will be other questions at other times, and the battle will start again.  Till the day my VOICE can triumph over the FEAR OF SPEAKING I will be fighting.

Absolutely correct Jessica! Your writing echoed in my mind, what Paulo Coelho wrote about "The Good Fight" in his novel "The Pilgrimage".

Keep up the Good Fight! Remember if you stop facing problems, you are not moving!
