Running From Ourselves

Racing through the night Our hearts must take flight As the beasts give chase We flee from our fall from grace Consumed by sin We desperately ignore the evil within The devil lurks near, preying on our fear The apex of insanity becomes uncomfortably clear We are young and we are mislead We are apathetic and we are dead

A great write, Christopher! Yes, we battle evil everyday within ourselves. That is why I thank God everyday for His grace. The battle cannot be won without His help. Thanks for your kind comment tonight. Blessings, Rhonda
