Your Worst Enemy
Look deep in the mirror
You shall see your worst enemy
Then if you love what you see
You are not a potential barrier
To yourself, to your progress
Human beings should be better
Know and learn better every day
If not, you are an impostor
You must stop the delay
Of your mission and success
It’s important to set up goals
Act like a good candidate
Ignore the fools and the polls
It’s important to set up a date
Because our time is limited
You and I are passing by
In a flash, we must say good bye
Love ourselves; we’re not demented
If you love and respect whom you see
And admire in the mirror without being
Narcissistic, you are not your own enemy
You are a great person; a good human being.
