"I can hear you coming.

It's been a long day,

please don't come.

I don't need you.

I never have.

I want to be alone.

I want to think,

please don't come,

go to someone else.

I can't stand it when you come.

I'm better without you.

you know I can't resist you,

but still I have to fight.

Please don't come.

I want to live without you.

please go away.

I asked you to go.

why are you surrounding me?

Gripping me by my shoulders,

slowly killing me,

one temptation at a time."

I crumble to the ground.

Giving in.

"I asked you not to come,

but still you did."

Finally you release me.

It's done.

my tears fall.

 I cry out for help.

"Help me lord,

to make him go away forever!"

why do I let this happen?

giving up,

and falling in?

I stand up,

"you scarred me again!"

I look him in the eye.

I can feel Gods strength building up in me.

now that I have his love,

I know he will never have to return.

"No more!"

I shout.

"You are done with me!"

He comes back to me,

surrounding me again.

trying to kill me.

"I am amazing just the way I am!"

strength in my voice.

"You will leave me,

I will never accept you again!

I'm tired of you killing me,

piece by piece.

I have a new lord!

and he is love!"

He winces now,

stepping away.

"His name is Jesus!" I yell.

"Nooo!"  He screams.

"Yes!"

I cry.

"Begone!"

He leaves.

God wraps his arms around me.

"You are my child now."

I smile.
