From a certain point of view our real enemy, the true troublemaker, is inside – Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

The enemy inside

Inside

things I don’t want to see

things I dont’ want to show

Inside

a mirror showing the real me

a mirror not making me glow

Inside

the enemy speaks to me

the enemy hinders me to grow

Inside

a battle between the enemy and me

a battle I’m not always willing to owe

Inside

the worst and the best of me

the worst I would like to stow

Inside

the real me should be set free

the real me should be able to flow

Inside

it seems logical to always be me

it seems not always easy though
(c) Mindful Mimi -May 2008
