my demons laughing – v4

My demons must be laughing
pointing at me, mocking,
because I am carrying chains,
I am mired in my thoughts
I am stuck in the mud
when Christ set me free.

I worry, I doubt, I think
I have no hope, no salvation
for I am not following my path
the Spirit’s way to life;
I am wandering on this earth;
I am struggling, I am lost.

My demons must be laughing
pointing at me, mocking
waiting for me to stumble
for me to fall, to fail
for me to give in, give up
for me to follow the flesh.

words cutting
January 26, 2019
anticipating the jabs
January 26, 2019
silent screams
January 26, 2019
in darkness, acting
January 26, 2019
willing to lie, to cheat
January 26, 2019
wanting to win
January 26, 2019
a labyrinth of lies
