When war broke out,
Or dissent of people turns to rebellion,
They built a fortress that will shield them,
From assault and death.
Likewise, I build my own fortress,
Fortifying it with passion and creativity,
As I fight my own battles,
And shield me from imminent attack.
Depression and anxiety have been my foe,
Leaving me in a corner to despair,
Swallowed in the depth of blankness,
As I continue to drown in sadness.
In the face of this adversary,
Writing helped me to cope up,
Scribbling the thoughts in my mind,
Composing works of naivety.
I continue to write and challenge my thoughts,
Conceiving words to harmonize in verses,
Creating poems of experience,
Thanks to this platform known as Diaries.
