This voice...
Name of Satan
stays beside you
all your life…
You hunger …
You thirst …
You lust …
All staying within
corruption
incomplete …
Your desires…
like a person
beaten and deprive.
When reacted upon
detours you
from the right course.
This endless fight
within yourself
always continues
Unless ….
your relent
making him happy
Otherwise…
this war endures
the adversaries…
You.

I would like to translate this poem
We all have the devil within us that stays there waiting to be awaken anytime. When one urge was not complete and desires burn and motivates one to do anything to satisfy the uncomplete needs the devil rises and speak to our consciousness. There within ourselves fights the battle of logical reasoning and instinct. Who ever wins, it depends how great our self control and faith is. Fabulous meaningful poem................10/10
