Demons Or Decisions

Was it your demons?
or was it your ignorant decisions?
what made you not listen?
what made you lose sight of your vision?
everybody battles with their own inner struggles
exhausted from trouble & years of aimless tussles
was it your ignorance or was it your demons?
you're back and forth like the waves of the ocean, searching for reasons?
of why you've felt defeated and down trodden for so many seasons

spirit wants you to know that sometimes it's hard to stay afloat 
But your answer to your question is that sometimes it is both
sometimes you knew better but did not CHOOSE better
if you  tap into your power of CHOICE 
you can welcome new levels of growth
and sometimes buried deep beneath what the natural eyes can see
are forces and patterns and unsolicited scenes and dreams
and principalities that create castles of strong fortitude inside of your mind
that influences how you use your shine and time
But don't lose heart there is hope
continue to cry out to God and the universe
and you must do the work
and trust me the work,hurts!
but its better than not having peace internally
tranquility
clarity and longevity
you are a blessing
being a human bein is a lesson
and sometimes the lesson feels like a gift and curse
but may you experience peace
whether its your own ignorance that's causing you suffering
or darker forces and voices
may you come to know the voice of peace.
peace.
