Good Vs Evil
The battle within: a poem by Ken Cruz
Gods a knocking But I’m afraid to let him in
I think Id rather let sin win
Take her for another spin
Feel my hair blowing in the wind
Be able to smile that devilish grin
Cause when I try to ride by his sons light I always wind up losing the fight
Things always end in plight
I guess either way they end with with decaying blight
At least I can enjoy the ride and neon lights I can repent and atone tomorrow night
Maybe then this could be alright
In the mean time tired of life feeling of trite
I mean I’m supposed to be woke right
Then why do I feel entombed like a mummy in a sarcophagus
Stuck clinging to every short gaping breath
There's aslim sliver of remaining taste because it feel like there’s a stone blocking my esophagus
I’m running hard and winded But look down to see im on a treadmill stuck in place...
Or maybe I'm just in quick sand and it's dragging me down
Perhaps something more sinister
He wants my soul I already know
I want to fight it But either way it feels like hell
No good deed goes unpunished
And once your in his grasp what can you do but plunder and pillage
Trying to rise
Trying to survive only to be left in the end
Not knowing what’s real
Or exactly how to feel
When it’s all burnt down And it’s quiet enough to hear ashes falling like snowflakes to the ground
And no one is around
Just whispers from both sides abound
But only clouds of hazy smoke are to be found
How can you trust yourself to make a decision that’s sound
The battle of good vs evil wages on
Within me and within you
Whatever shall we do
