Emotional Warriors
Thy hatred of thy self
More consuming then that
Of a thousand oceans
In thy mind a battle ground
Of the most colossal stages
Grander the that of
The Roman Colosseum
Between two opponents
Both grander than that of Goliath himself
Two emotions fight
As if warriors possessed
Hatred and happiness
Dark and light
Though I hope for happiness
The darkness of hatred
Can cloud even the brightest of hopes days
The minds battle settles
With a realization
For both warriors
For both emotions
For thy mind
To know true happiness
To know true peace
Both emotions
Must be in balance
