My Enemy

My enemies are not sadists or psychopaths,

my enemies are not petty thieves or back-stabbing friends.

I have one enemy, my mind.

It is relentless, defiant, rebelling against truth.

My strongest enemy is the mind of carnality,

the mind consumed by vanity, the mind that is so small

it can’t see past its own concrete walls of deception,

the mind that is entangled with the affairs of this life,

forgetting that this life is fleeting like shooting stars.

Everything my eyes can see is fading…

My enemy has imprisoned me

but I was born free.

My darkness will be enlightened.

I will not sleep with my eyes wide opened

but in a moment I will be changed.
