ADVERSARY
Hatred keeps the books
Taking stock of every thought words or deed
Revenge is its follow up
Until got spreads venom
Carries lot of baggage
Mind heavy with the luggage
Awaiting a draw
Ready with daggers drawn
Enemies standing in every corner
A mind so hollow
Wastes time on things so shallow
The fight played in the mind
The shootouts bloodies the rest
Shooter and the shot
Ends up the injured lot
Added it to the log
Deep rooted hatred the fog
Prevents from seeing it all
No greater waste of time
Wishing Ill for someone else
I'll retained affect the imagination
Creating images of opponents everywhere
Bitterness and contempt
Loathing and antipathy
Toxic for the mind and body
Makes the Soul *****
Imaginary adversaries become
Reality
List of friends becoming empty
Reflecting the inside of the body
Mind comes up with new stratergies
Not worth the trouble going through this riddle
With no solutions in it
A labryinth without exit
Drug induced state
Of anger and hate
Step by step process
Start by giving it a recess
Aimless life meandering
Focus on the others falling
No growth for the self
Wishing same for another
Makes you live
In the past
Recalling every negative thought
Present not in the know
Future blinded forever
Balm of forgiveness
Only way out
Before the roots grow stronger
An axe becomes the need of the hour
Addictive in nature
Refuses to leave ever
With age growing mature
Peel off later by layer
Love for oneself
Peace and Rest
Love for others
Tolerance and Forgiveness
