Life Cycle

My friend and my foe Enmeshed from head to toe A deamon’s prison ingested The deeper fall I go Prisoned by the evil Surrounded by the haze The viscous cycle created Continues like a maze Lost and found again I think I’m free from sin My past and future jagged This battle I must win People think they know me Perceptions cruel and wrong I’m stronger than they think Learning more as I go along The struggle and the joy This life we must accept I know myself the most So I will tell it best Growing more each day My voice a whisper low I turn the volume up So I can hear and know I will travel thru The good days and the bad I’ll focus on the feelings Both the happy and the sad I will exude love For this is what’s in me Despite the bitter hate That seems to always be All I want is peace Within the world and me Imagine only love And what we all could be But all I can control Is what I choose and do My present being lives and dies My inner soul renews The next time I’ll know more I’ll live another story My one last dying wish A world of peace and glory
