Maybe I would love critiques for this one. It's very old too:


I Wrestle Against Myself


I tried turning away from myself
But saw me looking at myself
I tried taking away the old stuffs off my shelf
But knew it was a wrestle against myself

How could I remove my ancient sleeve
And put me on a new amour of serenity?
How could I change when I don’t even believe
And then wrestle against my own integrity?

I cried out aloud from within
Only to put all that I feel out
Looking unto a future so thin
I still hope to wrestle me out

Wrestle against my failures,
Wrestle against my ado,
Wrestle against my future, I verge to wrestle against my ego-McNeal (1999)

To be honest, it was a though time for me and those moments of perturbation, many thoughts run thru' your mind...but at the moment... I think the wrestle is done, and I am won..!

But my anticipation was more of the negative, neanmoins, it's ok.

I will be doing more posting as I get more reviews... I have more of them.
