:trigger maybe
I am my own worst enemy.
Surely there is no one who roots for,
cheers on,
throws themselves toward
my destruction
more than the enemy who lives inside me.
She lies to me.
She whispers seductively,
alluringly
that 'denial of self
breeds contentment.'
It does not
I am not content
I scrape, scratch, claw, cut
at the outer shell
enclosing my enemy
but she does not leave, not yet
she wants to be crowned
Queen Enemy, when will you let me
find me?
