[The never-ending battle]
Sometimes the battle is more complex
than a simple two sided affair.
Sometimes the enemy is within
and the battle is not "me versus you"
.... instead it's "me versus me".

I fight against myself
with weapons of logic and reason and feeling and pain.....
..... and I wrestle just as hard using my weapons of
loyalty and love and logic and reason.

loyalty and love and logic and reason.
.... and it's strange how each of me
has many of the same weapons in my hand
.... and each time we face off
in our battle, we fight till we stand
in defeat..... one defeated by the fact
that I still stand.....
and the other defeated by knowing
that I will fight again.

Both of me defeated by a type
of war which was created by
an uncaring world
where gleeful vandals
of life.... shatter the dreams
of lesser beings.
