Yet Are Bound... (A Personal Observation) Poem by Sharon Smith

Some out there are starting to see..
though they fight this feeling inside
I believe they know deep down in their soul..
yet are bound by earthly pride
They can't get past the 'conditioning'..
that has been going on these last years
the 'religion is uncool' bit..
that has played upon their fears
'Don't want to be taken for a ride'..
'Don't want to look uncool'..
'Don't want to be ridiculed by my friends'..
or be taken for a fool'
'Give me some proof, prove what you say'..
'How do you know what religion is right? '..
Yes, indeed, a spiritual battle..
as the anti-Christ's hold is tight..
he plays with doubt and earthly lust..
pride is one that he does use..
until they don't know..what to trust..
and without understanding..abuse.
