Fighting Yourself
A fight not of traditional standards
Inside the head of the afflicted
Two personalities battle for Dominance
One the good wants to be a hero
The other the bad wants to have prominence
The constant fight is at a draw
Neither side can get a foot hold
The bad isn't evil it's got good points and The good isn't an angel either it's got its dark thoughts truth be told
The sides aren't black and white they are grey
What could be accomplished if they'd work together no one could say
Instead they fight as the hidden Demon masters watch for enjoyment
Together they could over come it
Instead they fight keeping themselves down and dormant
