The Enemy Lives Inside

Sometimes I try to be humble
Sometimes I start to mumble
Sometimes I stop and try
To undo what's been done
They no longer want to hide
But I keep fighting for my pride
Sometimes it becomes more like
A battle that can't be won
There's no champion
When the enemies live inside
All I can do is already tried.

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.
