The Guide
I. Realization
Cold delusion stares right at me
He sees all that I can see
All my troubles, from day to day
Disappear when he comes to play
Why would anyone want him to leave?
He hides nothing up his sleeve
They are just jealous, they do not know
What would happen, if he were to go
The problems would start, the pain and fear
Realizing all we have is what lies here
But strangely enough, he is unable to stay
He cannot always come out to play
But when he comes, I start to see
He's just the missing part of me
II. Rebirth
I live my life, an empty waste
I yearn for freedom, just one taste
From outside my body to inside my mind
I'm trapped inside my own design
I hold the key, unable to turn
The door slowly opens, the more I learn
The lock was made to keep me in
But I am stronger than this evil whim
The harder I try, the farther I fall
Should I even fight at all?
Is it worth it? Will life change?
What if things just stay the same?
But if I never was to fight
Constant would it be, this plight
The end so close, I musn't crawl
My soul would be the one to fall
III. Resurrection
Back from the grave, given new life
I must learn to avoid the strife
He watches, he smirks, behind my back
Pulling the rope, tightening the slack
His pressence no longer do I seek
He only makes me small and weak
I do not need him, this he knows
The more I understand, the stronger I grow
A part of my past, I'll leave him behind
Just a figment inside of my mind

I think this poem is about the battle within yourself. Constantly fighting what you think is right , and what everybody else is telling you is right. The biggest battle anybody wages is with themselves. It's the one enemy you can never escape. But hey, what is life without a little conviction. It's about hating the same person you are forced to spend every second with, yourself.
You are an awesome writer and I defainately think that you should turn some of your poems into songs! If Elevnty can get a contract then you can do anything ;-)
