We heavily consider the value of existence, For a quest of bias, a path of prole resistance, Assess our inner selves clearly and briefly, Our goals have gotten us afar deeply. Skepticism conveys the root of all hatred, If there is vital strife, tempers are shattered, Reason and fact provide the basis of love, They've ne'er started, and ne'er seen above. When deep chaos is no longer obnoxious, The greater the rise, the greater the noxious, The idea of lust and its quest is not at odds, This proclaims the value of hatred wads. Any attempt to rile results is bound to fail, Struggling for the forlorn while trapped in hell, Intent on receiving but unwilling to supply, I don't yearn to live since I'm daunted to die.   Expecting the best while having little, I'm anxious to quit, but I will never belittle, Trying to catch up after falling behind, Aiming toward a goal with a dreamy mind. I concocted a paradox in my imagination, It is a battle that I must wage in isolation, I hit a sequel within me to an auld skirmish, Hidden in the depths that my thoughts furnish. What remains inside is only pain and humor, The unique items left are tears and rumors, The unmistakable variable is the solace, Ne'er has my dilemma felt so full of promise. Your lack of shadows haunts you from behind, My profound foul spirit, enlightened my mind.

There is a war going on in each one of us . We have to wage that battle in isolation. How we conquer that inner conflict determines our life ! Powerful poem, dear Lasaad !
