Poetry: Fighting spirit

by Justin Luther

Created on: April 26, 2010

DIRECT RESPONSE

I watched you tear down the wall
And I watched the wall tear you down
Everyone came to your side when you stood against everyone
Love is one thing often missed by everyone
Especially those who seek it most
We're all lost
We're caught up
And everyone's a hypocrite
Loving Jesus, I am especially guilty of this

Stop!
Stop thinking about the ones you know
Look into your own heart
Look into yourself
I think you’ll find
That this applies

Fighting the good fight is a losing battle
And the victors can’t sleep at night
Even the narcissists won't be able to stand the sight
The mirror image of themselves

For a selfish people
We sure don’t analyze ourselves enough
We are all fighting for something
But I often forget when enough is enough
