Who or What is Your Greatest Adversary? $5 Prize
Mass tagging results in disqualification.
mind against body
as the typical answer goes,
i am my own greatest adversary.
but not because i self-sabatoge or hurt myself unnecessarily or lessen my worth.
although i do all those things.
it’s because i let him in.
i let him into my heart and made myself weak.
to his charm and intellect.
to his gentle hands and soft hair.
and now,
i am my own opponent.
my mind telling me to focus on studies.
my body wanting me to focus on his.
this battle never ends,
and both sides feel the damage.
our connection tainted,
my studies halted.
when will this brutal war end?
with the fall of my academics
or the death of us?
