The Taste

Fighting an invisible enemy

Trace the tears

Unexplained

Sense the fears

Still unnamed

Know the pain and sorrow and regrets

Battling a shadow

Still unmasked

My heart and soul

A captive of my mind

My only wish is to be free

Yet I wish not for a saviour

But to save myself

So that I, too, may know

The bittersweet taste

Of victory
