To Keep Us Caged

To keep us caged, ego spawns fear Mirrored by dark desire This blocks God’s light from drawing near We give up when we tire Silence shows us the way Sparking bliss here to stay Truth then seen, clear as day Mind battles waged To keep us caged

Few words yet powerful. The mind is a very powerful part of us. Yes, it can and does cage us. Have a great day writing away.
