The War in Me
Beowulf versus Grendel
A classic tale of battle, which continues in me.
My Grendel has terrorized me for years,
Sinking her claws deep into my soul
Every day I fight back – Becoming my own hero
All the while my Grendel laughs.
Some days I win, some days I lose.
Nevertheless, every day I face my monsters
Every day I fight back with a will as strong as steel.
The war rages on,
But I know
One day
I will slay my Grendel.
