Lawrence S. Pertillar - Self Obsession

2014-06-12 4 Dailymotion

Let's be honest about this. <br />The one true enemy we have, <br />Is our self obsession. <br /> <br />We've been taught to believe, <br />Someone else desires what we possess. <br />And wishes to bleed from us, <br />A way to get it. <br /> <br />Our self centeredness, <br />Surrounds us with paranoia. <br />We neither have peace nor rest! <br />And yet we accept isolation, <br />As a means to forget our own failures. <br /> <br />The day will come when we will wake up, <br />And see the nonsense behind our self inflicted pain... <br />We seek to blame on someone else. <br />Only to 'create' an enemy to keep us happy, <br />And delusional about how great we are. <br />And if that was true... <br />Why are we continually bickering amongst ourselves, <br />About who is better and more qualified to have life <br />With more greed and little to no peace to go with it! <br /> <br />Let's be honest about this. <br />The one true enemy we have, <br />Is our self obsession.<br /><br />Lawrence S.
