The Enemy Within
I may not see you, but know
that you are there.
Waiting for the right moment
to strike your evil blow.
You come up when everything
seems fine causing
great pain, and heartache.
Not caring how I feel
ruining friendships, relationship
and everything else
you can grab ahold of.
Sometimes you stay and do
your damage for afew
days and leave while other
times you stay several
weeks. Grabbing ahold
of my life and taking total
control not caring what
its doing to everyone around.
I have tried fighting you
in everyway that I can but
always seem to fail.
You have ways to make me
doubt myself no other can
achieve.
You have taken some of the
best things in life and
used them against me.
You try and try to end my
life because for you to
win means I must die.
I have gotten stronger now
and have become aware
of your strengths and your
weaknesses. I know
where you live and hide
and someday. You shall
die.
I have the help of many
friends you haven't managed
to make them leave.
Showing me that in order to beat
you I can't do it alone
and survive.
I know you hide inside me
tearing me end for end
never letting up.
I know you are the voices in my head
telling me to give up.
One day I shall track you
down and make you leave
and then I shall be free
from all your pain, confusion,
doubts and fears.
Oh, what a joyful day that
shall be.
