Psalm 91 (King James Version)


The world in motion, the world in blur
See the colors that illuminate and fade away
Into the chaos they fight
Who is the enemy?
Themselves
Scattered about in the mist of rain
The war rages on inside their head
Their Universe broken and shattered
They let out laughter even in combat
For they are truly fighting their mirror
And it laughs as well back to them


The author's comments:
This was a result of an internal struggle I have in dealing with forgiveness and hatred. Hate is the ultimate destructive power that consumed me and I fought with myself in an internal battle to keep myself sane and well. The result of hatred is grim, however the benefits are that I am able to view things sharply. Not only has experiencing this deep hatred brought me down, but it has opened my eyes to the one thing Hate fears which is love. One must be strong and have the right mind set in order to deal with the consequences of abhorrence. I pass this along so that others may know that deep hatred leads to nowhere, there is hope and second chances. I hope that no one would ever experience hatred as I have, it only leads to sorrow and negativity. This is the message, listen or ignore it, it doesn't matter. If someone is helped by this then I have done my job.
