Instincts in Life

I find myself back at square one.
I returned with a fight.
Somewhere I gave in.
The fighter in me was willing to lay down.
To feel defeat is to learn you weren't as strong as you once thought.
I let you win due to the fact that you are the part of me that imagines life as
a World where anything is possible.
To be in your presence is to feel superior.
Like few are able to land in the position I somehow
place myself in. You are the advocate of freewill.
I admire in you so deeply your ability to let go.
To let one flourish.
A trait in myself I've wanted to harbor.
How long will I continue to suppress my deepest desires
to hold on to the one I hold so dear?
A carefully chosen group of songs to express
your emotions.
Emotion is an instinct.
We can control our instincts.
Why? Why? This never ending battle of good vs. evil.
Sin vs. Righteousness. It's due to our instinct of negativity.
Our instinct of self-centeredness that leads us to do destructive things.
A lack of concern for the well being of others and an over concern for the well being of the self.
Why not trust our instincts? There is something in us that fights the instinct to hurt yourself.
Something inside of you that says, Stop before you start. DO YOU LISTEN WHEN YOUR TELLING YOURSELF NO?!
Hear me. LISTEN.
