ENEMY OF MYSELF

I am the enemy of myself
I need not be told further 
for my actions depicts my intentions 
intentions detrimental to myself

my reflection troubles me 
but the mirror speaks well for me
my psychological doppelganger pricks
it taunts me 

researching all means to yank me
pull me down from my decent height 
I'm stained, guilty but this isn't right 
this is awful, I'm my own darkness

go to church sometimes and pray for my enemy to die
fall of my knees to cry "Haba father"
sweating profusely as I pray hard
but wait, what if I'm the enemy of myself?
