The Mind Is the Battle Ground

The mind starts every battle. Dreams are pictures that are in your mind; You can sleep, but your mind is always awake. Everything that goes to heart starts in the mind, Even things that goes to mouth starts in the mind. Your deeds are controlled by the mind. For the mind is the battle ground. The mind captures thousand pictures in a second, It stores everything you see. Hearing feed the mind with information, Information create pictures. If you realize how powerful your thoughts are, You would never think negative. For the mind is the battlefield! An idle mind is the devil's workshop; Failure starts in the mind. In the province of the mind, What you believe is true or becomes true. Let your brain be your servant instead of your master; Rule it instead of allowing it to rule you. For the mind is the battle ground! Bad thoughts can be deleted; The mind can be restored. Your mindset can change. For imagination is greater than knowledge. The mind is the battlefield. Your blessings are near, But your mind is far. You cannot have access to your blessings, Until you change your mindset. True enjoyment comes from the activity of the mind, And exercise of the body; the two are ever united. For the mind dominates the body. When the devil steals your mind, He kills your soul; Thus you are destroyed. Be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Keep God in your mind, And you shall be kept in perfect peace. For the mind is the battle ground.

Hello Lucky Zwane, I found you poem just the slightest bit disturbing, I am not sure if it the cultural difference (which I am sure play a significant role), but your references...I agree that the mind is the biggest battlefield in existence...I guess I have never seen it expressed in such vivid literal terms. Great write tho'! very thought evoking for me; Thanks so much for sharing. Robert

Hi Lucky, I would like to extend my hand in welcome to the PoetrySoup community. Powerful poem you have here. The mind stays awake - how true! I like the point on changing our mindset - we have to perceive things differently for them to be different. Very well written! There’s a lot to learn from each other here and hopefully you will have a great time while at it. Feel free to drop me a line when you can. I am looking forward to reading more from you. Vicky.
