A Reflective Enemy
July 1, 2009
A Reflective Enemy
I see my enemy
Across the battlefield
Hold my weapon
And raise a shield
Should I surrender?
Or stand and fight?
There she is
In plain sight
She tell me she’s the future
But the futures far away
I have my own opinion
And my own words to say
This is it
I stand and take a shot
There’s a burst of pain
And a faint little plot
I look down
And it’s blood that I see
Turns out my only enemy
Was me
