The Enemy within

Slowly getting out was I As the wounds of the heart healed, Normalcy had returned in the strife torn mind Conflicts of the mind seemed long forgotten The serene peace was nearly here to stay Memories relegated to the dark contours of the mind Sabotage! Cried the heart As the cause of the memories staged a comeback Heart in quandary, memories gone haywire The past comes back to the present, The future hazy as the mind savors this moment How long! I ask, as this was just not meant to be The broken heart fights back in action Spirit willing, flesh weak, can’t take it again Hope! The enemy within is back with a bang It’ll nail me once more I know Destroy my faith once again Killing the soul for its own gain.

After all these years…

After all these years, The penchant for life still sustained Triumphant in a glory, Whose fragrance had long remained. Comes along a love, That’s begs to be pursued, At long last, The heart has been rescued. Crying with joy, The anger has been moved, This listless existence, In past years has been proved. Why! Oh, Why! As the heart is questioned. What was the need? For this mediocrity to be stationed?
