My enemy is myself

Sometimes the fire is within us and we need to learn to put it out ourselves before it kills us.

Cracked walls of white 

Stamped with my miseries and my inner self laughing with delight 

Walking through shallow hallways 

Viewing my work 

I see myself again. She's looking at me

Each memory carved with a story 

Each story attached with a picture 

The blank hallways are what to be 

Brightness is what I want it to be 

That's what I need it to be

For I can not see clearly 

I am blinded by life's horrors 

My inner self saves me 

Or do I think so?

My fears is what you strike

My strengths is what you tease

I trusted what I couldn't see

My downfall? Myself. 

I'm my biggest enemy
