All through my life I saw you so closely
Still let you pass by
In all moments so varied, you lingered around me
Yet somehow I just smiled and let you be
You meant to overpower me
With your shrewd and cunning ways
And bring me down to show my place
As you thought
I could realize how close you were
Whenever I got contradicting thoughts
I could feel your presence
When I was just about to choose wrong over right
But I perceived you and went for the good
After all these years when I could bypass you
You still hover looking for a chance
A momentary lapse of my reasoning
As with age I go frail and weak
But like yours, please bear in your evil mind
I can also bear garbs and pretenses
Might catch you in yours and do away with you for good
You no longer will loom around us
Looking for the meek, looking for the weak
To capture their soul
To inflict them with your morbid desires
Oh! the evil! stand guard
To protect the gullible, vulnerable, naïve souls
From your pretentious, miserable goals!
