Good and Bad


This is a poem about one’s struggle to fight the evil voices
that resides in you. At times, when we are almost close to giving in to
temptation and invitation of wickedness, don’t lose your grip to the One above
and hold on to your faith.

I looked
here and there

And I see no
one

All I want
is to detach

All I long
for is to cry

I sat on a
bench

Crossed my
legs and stayed still

My mind
keeps on shouting

Words I
don’t wanna hear

My steps are
taking me nowhere

My heart
pumps more

My mind is
down

And my sanity
have flown

I fought
with all my might

I say no, I
won’t be enticed

I won’t give
in to your invitation

I beg you
now to leave at once

You might be
laughing now, I know

Did you plan
for this all the while?

The game is
over, that you might think

But I tell
you my clever foe, you are mistaken

I worked too
much to stay away

From your
traces and shadow, I’d disconnect

You and I
should never meet

We are
destined with different fate

For years, I
am what I am supposed to

I lived and
acted according to purpose

Why can’t
you do the same?

Isn’t it we
are made to be akin?

I took a
pause and ruminate

I looked
around and found myself

In my
solitude I would be alone

Who would
come here to calm me down?

I hear
voices whispering me

Where did
they all come from? Or was it me?

Will I let
my alter ego take the chance?

To lead me
adrift, in wickedness I shall be drown

The sun
always shines on me

The night
comes to shelter me

The rainbow
took away my blues

The air
gives me room to breathe out the frost

My heart can
be as cold as ice

My touch can
be as numb as you would think

My mind is
dumb now, I can think no more

But there’s
no chance I’ll take you in

You almost
lured me into your world

A dark,
hollow cave it seems to me

One move I
make, I’ll be entrapped

Dwell in
despair and remorse for all my life

From behind,
a hand pulled me out

I saw no one
but light that sparks

I knew it’
all in my mind

I should
save myself from this trap

You should
have known where you stand now

There’s no
way you’ll make me bow

I’ll assure
that your horn and tail could do me no harm

To my faith
I hold, I’m in good hands

Evil would
never win

Their
efforts would be in vain

Don’t let
them rule the world

Act now and
make a move
