Eternal Battle

There's an eternal battle, I know you can feel it's rattle.

It was started long ago by God's enemy and foe.

In each of us it rages, burning like fire drenched pages,

going through it's many different stages, like it has been for the ages.

It's a battle between evil and good, that few of us have truly ever understood. Even the wisest of man's past were amazed at how it grew so fast, but were ignorant to stay  clear of it's evil cast.

It's a battle that will cut long into the future,

like an open suture. Leaving it's mark on time, with centuries of violence and crime.

But this battle can be won, through Jesus Christ,

God's only son. Just follow his path, and your guaranteed to stay free of this battle's wrath.

This poem is very powerful, & sooo true! I really like it, & the way you've worded the struggle, the conflict between darkness & light...I'm not one to prefer rap music to other styles, but i could almost hear this, as i read it, spoken, to music! (I guess that would be rap, huh?)
...by some of your other poems, when I read this, I wondered which ones were written first...
