They break away from your beliefs,
Your code of morale.
They dance with your enemies
and hide in their closets.
Smiling as they poke at your weaknesses,
they flaunt their strength in front of your eyes,
laughing when you crumble
and fall.
Watch them as they live the life you only wish you could have.
Hide behind your beliefs
If you think it will save you.
Okay, when I wrote the ending I didn't mean for there to be a double entedre. It just happened, for that, I am proud.

haha Hiding behind beliefs to be saved from those who flaunt theirs? I do get the double entendre. And, I think that the best things that happen- in anything though writing is definitely one of the main ones- is when they just happen.

My own beliefs are these. People are saved only by knowing themselves and being true to who they are. Use what someone else speaks as guidance, if they so wish it. But not to let others dictate who they are. But we are each individuals and should be respected for such on all levels.
