The Voice of My Enemy

Inspired by the book Man, Oh Man by Mark Whitmore*

The voice of my enemy is manipulative, yet smart for the way she talks.

The voice of my enemy is toxic as the most deadly chemicals there are, but also once had the wisest words.

The voice of my enemy is the most demanding, yet the most submissive to other peopleś commands.

The voice of my enemy is controlling but falls to the slightest requests from others.

The voice of my enemy is jealous, yet the most discreetly relaxed with everything you do until she strikes back.

The voice of my enemy is there, but gone in the wild at the same time.

The voice of my enemy is clear, yet lost in the misty fog.

The voice of my enemy still haunts me, but I let the demons do what they please until the right time comes.

The voice of my enemy is forceful on you over things you don't want to be, yet plays the boy who cried wolf when you politely ask for her to stop doing something.

She will never fully go away, but the choice of letting her take over my life is only mine.
