In the labyrinth of self, I tread, A path where shadows cast their dread. Identity, a puzzle to define, A fractured mirror, a shattered sign.

Within my mind, a duality dwells, One side in light, the other in hells. PTSD's grip, a relentless tide, Invisible wounds that I can't hide.

Yet in this struggle, I find my strength, A journey of healing, at any length. I'll embrace the pieces, make them whole, In the battle for self, I'll find my soul.
