Pain of withering

Sudden unexpected events wither you inside.

First challenge is to accept the event

Second challenge is fear of unknown

Acceptance pushes you to look for solution

Here comes the third challenge

A tiff between mind, body and soul

Rebuilding self from the broken soul

A daunting task for the wounded soul

Brain and Heart pose their challenge

This is your battle

None can take you out

Suggestions may provide relief but it is temporary

So keeping yourself exceedingly occupied

May provide distraction from the wound

But when you are alone with yourself

Suppressed inner volcano gushes outside

As deep inside the wound is still afresh

Frequent gushing of wounds continues their piercing

Solace comes from healing

Healing gives peace to mind, body and soul

Difficult to receive the healing balm

No one wants to lose the battle

No one wants to be known as failure

Option is to fight or flight

Fight requires persistent determination

Despite receiving setbacks in the process

Continuous failure tears you apart

Foremost is your mental triggers, coupled by surroundings

Abetting hurt to the already wounded soul

And you look for escape

Unable to cope with the pressure of the sores

You attempt to leave but with heavy heart & crying soul

You don’t want to be known as loser

You always want to win

Failure is killing

And circumstances wither you inside out
