Two-faced Enemy

War with your mind

The last person to be at war with is yourself

Not being able to distinguish the enemy from the friend became they are all the same

Looking at the mirror and being pleased with what you see

But the next minute, you are at war with your mind

The mind that calls you worthless

And makes you feel like the world will be a better place without you

Like your presence isn't contributing anything

The mind that makes you feel empty

And no matter how much you try, you can't fill the void inside of you

It makes you feel unloved and unloveable

And sometimes, it seems like it is right

Because, it always points out your greatest weakness

The mind can be your friend or your nemesis

Depending on the amount of power you give it
