Poem-Struggle For Hope
I tried to make it a power poem.

Walking down the halls
Voices screaming
Who all fell down?
My feet will not stop
I can not see you
Struggling, suffering
Creatures invaded
And there is only one way out
I can't pause or they will get me too
I think why do I care
But realize I have to
Then I heard your voice
Crystal clear
And I couldn't leave you
So I barged into the room
Looking at what tied you to the bed
How could this have happened
You can't be dead
See your chest barely moving
The beast walking towards me
Everything going so slow
I grabbed a knife and cut your rope
You fell on the floor
Couldn't support yourself
I picked you up and put you behind me
I couldn't let him finish you
So the thing charged at me
With its sharp teeth
Killer words
Telling me I was trash
That I was worthless
Tearing at my heart
Feeling it almost break
Like yours was almost broken
I knew I had to get you out
Blood spewing out of my chest onto the ground
The creature's nails dug in
I could feel it taunting me from a distance
Feel the words I let in
I pulled you onto my back and ran
Hearing the footsteps behind me
Getting closer
My arms giving out
I couldn't let go of you
I had to get you help
The thing kicking at me
How many lives were lost now
Due to the poison
The toxic waste that was created here
I felt it pull at you and turned around
It had grew, feeding off the innocent
I yelled at it to go away
That I had love in my heart
Told it it would pay
It laughed in my face
Told me I would never save you
That you were already gone
But I couldn't believe it
This was all wrong
Its demon eyes smiling at me
I felt my knees shake
It was fast, strong and I was so weak
But my love for you made me stronger
You needed me and this could last no longer
"You are just in my mind"
"You destroyed so much but not my love"
My heart that I am trying to protect
Now smaller in my hands
You were the person that got close to me
And turned into someone bad
So leave now
Quit killing every part of me
I am better than you
And you now are fading
The parts of me growing back
I am stronger now
I found my power in my words
Now you are gone
I wasn't dead
Just dying
I wasn't weak
Just crying
I was attacked
But I stood firm
I was something
And you were just dirt
