War Today

War Today

I sat deep in thought today,
and my mind came up with nothing.
I know there has to be another way,
some truer tune to sing.
I struggle constantly to win some war,
but who could my enemy be?
Who are these raging battles for,
and in the end, will I be free?
If threatened by my hearts own love,
will loyalty weather through?
Can I be gentle as a dove,
or will anger show to be all that's true?
Some time in my thinking these things,
I realized that unless I would turn and flee,
I must grab the peace only God brings,
For my enemy has always been me.
