They creep into your consciousness <br />And rearrange your dreams, <br />They banish your self confidence <br />And blight your thoughts, it seems; <br />Give birth to insecurities, <br />They undermine your goals, <br />They show up in the dead of night <br />Intent to steal your soul; <br /> <br />These fiends are non selective, <br />Their targets all fair game - <br />It doesn't matter who you are <br />They'll find you just the same; <br />There is no self protection, <br />Nowhere to run and hide, <br />They burrow deep within your mind - <br />Disintegrate your pride; <br /> <br />These masters of disaster, <br />We all know who they are - <br />They live inside the looking glass <br />And stare back from afar; <br />Stand strong in your convictions, <br />Speak out for what is right - <br />Prepare to slay the dragons <br />That stalk you in the night. <br /> <br /> <br />2/27/2009<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/night-dragons/
