The Conquest

She struggled to gain her composure Her confidence in being As her world changed Never to be the same again The fear of the unknown Of what is yet to be Alone in this vast world of people Sadness in being one Gloom and unhappiness The order of the day Questioning the purpose Of life and its struggles The grip of depression Takes hold Threatening to overtake The body and soul Confusion and sadness continues Its hold on her As she seeks the answers That will set her free Her innerself struggles In attempts to defeat The demon that threatens Her very being With many an effort She learns to stand strong Facing the pain and uncertainty Of the long road ahead Time marches on She has learned much Strength is hers now She believes in herself
