The Enemy From Within

The enemy from within

do you know him

cunning and slipping

always out of your grasp

Have you met him lately

or like those many times

he pushed into

the inner circle of fools

You hear his voice so lovely

coaxing you stately

he is only the devil that exists

but how can I resist?

Love him, hate him

day and night, with all my heart

sometimes I wonder if i can convince him

to become a saint of honor after all

and every time I think to myself

I have finally learned my game

but every time I listen to him

he has put me in trouble without failing

I keep telling myself

I'll stop chasing him

wait now, is it the other way round

why is he so hard to understand

I ask many

how can I strangle him

it's very simple they say

now, there's a shocker i say

It's the universal truth they tell me

some how they fail to convince me

he is me it finally dawns on me

and in an instant he is one with me

there's no more anger just the peace

what else do i need from this life at ease
