The Enemy Within

Pious path of duty and judicious steps in dealings
Make us free from fictitious result and reelings.

Love and like for mere emotional urges and encounters ,
If go on being followed blindly, one fails and falters .

Let us be as simple as possible but truthful in our decision,
Only then the path paved to the destination has precision .

Pseudo-satisfaction with self made ifs and buts is ever futile ,
The worst outcome is that  such oft repetition becomes one’s style .

Beware of the enemy within, playing guile and beguiled off and on ,
Staining your good intent by demeaning the paradise -paragon .
