Misery

we all have a friend called misery
who lives within us deep
he looks for a way out with his wizardry
even during our deepest sleep
as soon as he's out he'll haunt you forever
no matter how much you shout
leave you alone is one thing he'll do never
as long as he stays out
but misery can never go undefeated
at this point some people lie
they have done it before they have never cheated
everything will eventually die
just think of a memory a beautiful thought
like a unicorn with magical wings
forget about problems or people with whom you have fought
just imagine some marvellous things
think of the past present and future
in good ways and good ways only
for this simple matter you wont need a tutor
if you fail you'll become very lonely

and so in the end you'll have victory
and your enemy will be defeated
you'll be rid of his mischievous wizardry
you can do it in a second while seated

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
