The Battle in Me
In my window of life.
There are two of me.
One holds a bible.
One holds a bee.
The one with the bible,
Also carries a flower.
She holds it close,
And smiles with power.
The one with the bee.
Her smile a lie, you see
Her bee causes pain where ever she flys
She puts blame on others,
That is her lie.
They battle back and forth.
One day one will win,
But only after Jesus returns can the battle truly end.
