Analysis of Fighter
her face is damp
and her eyes are red,
the thoughts running through her mind
are saying she's better off dead.
nothing is going right
everything went wrong,
the waves crashing into her
are becoming way too strong.
she's a fighter
she'll never give in,
but they way things look like now
there's no way she will ever win.
will the next wave
swallow her whole,
will it take just her body
or will it also steal her soul?
will she be able to stand
life's horrible might?
is peace near or
is it just an ongoing fight?
