Two Voices Battling Within

The succulent trees with healthy branches sways gentle in the murky atmosphere The compulsion of nature could not hold out It rumbled the sky with a desperate shout. And the delightful afternoon emerged and warms my heart with comforting vibes granting me a tranquil place to hide. The full moon spilled hot sun over my skin After weeks of wetness and sadness Without warning it salutes us with unpredictable madness. For one moment it feels like summer and everyone was out enjoying this fine weather. Bewildered by this unexpected charm It was fun to break this prolonged obscurity and soaked myself in Spring's warmness. Looking beyond the peculiar weather On a day like this I found pleasure lying in the grass and staring directly into the deceptive sun hoping to get some consolation But instead I found myself on a strange journey denouncing Lucifer. The voice of immorality kept shouting out spitting venom and wavering doubt The voice of evil keeps drowning me out How much I want to break out. I pushed desperately to get a word in But the loathsome voice kept cutting in The diabolic forces wrestled with me For almost two hours I kept rebuking it. But the more the voice keep crying out Raging out of control, making false accusation disdaining everybody, including the innocent ones. A double tongue and a double voice kept raging havoc by my side I fought tirelessly to quite his turbulent spirit But he kept chatting on with charm and viscous horns. He would not admit to his narcissistic reaction so I engaged him by the running stream And wrestled with him on top of the bridge We struggled for a while before he reconciled I went up the slope in the thick bushes And alas! he surrendered and admit to his reprehensible behavior Without warning everything was instantly over.
