Fight or Flight Poem
My thoughts are revolving
The problems I'm solving
Act strong for others to see
Hide the true me
Hide all the anguish and pain
Hide that you are going slowly insane
Wishing for better days
Looking at the world in new ways
Focusing all of your energy
Make things make sense, you plea
Torn in directions divided
The future is not yet decided
Choose what is best for you
Difficulty is the path of virtue
The more you put into it
The more you will benefit
Love those who love you back
Always keep yourself on track
Protect those who always care
Others problems too much to bare
Conflicts now come to an end
Wounds you can now mend
It’s human to doubt your place
Your thoughts now show on your face
Now is time to face your fear
The truth is all you now hear
Face the conflict to end your strife
Now you can go on and live your life
