My Enemy

By:

Dillon Wheeler

A Revelation of sorts.

I was so indoctrinated,

You almost caught me.

I was in a catatonic state,

Completely helpless,

But now I am back,

And I can breathe.

Your influence is astonishing,

You can convince them,

Inspire them,

Then break them with relative ease.

You can crush a man's soul,

Break his will,

Destroy him completely,

But you will never take his heart.

My mind was shattered,

my freedom was gone.

I never noticed that for so long,

It was all one big con.

But I broke the barrier around my mind,

And never again will i be my former self.

I did not say it would be easy,

But I will not be left behind.

I walk around,

surrounded by mindless drones,

The lies,

Deception,

No longer escape me.

Because I broke free,

And I can see you for what you are,

My enemy.

I'm now in control,

Fighting the power,

Hurt but still have hope,

For you will not devour me.

Im in a state of emergency,

Theres no doubt,

Outmatched and outclassed,

None of it matters,

As you will fall,

And I am myself again.
