Self is our greatest enemy on how we perceive things, on how we react on situations or how we analyze general and individual circumstances!

The Enemy Within

‘Have taken green, bizarre extra leap –
Which birth from the extreme edge of limits?

Sans ruminating – where and how to perch
With the thrills and bliss; a satchel of love

She leapfrogs from the high rise – a sky scraper’s dive
Jeopardizing domain, gambling all – on love’s name

This is like a suicidal note where love doesn't care no matter what.

Thoughtless love's extreme steps slip one to jeopardizing domain! So, one has to be careful and cautious in love adventure to meet success! A warning like poem clearly will make others be careful of love!

Hi Catrina Good to see you at poetfreak. This poem captures well the idea of how one can be one's own enemy. The lines below provide a dramatic if painful finish: She leapfrogs from the high rise – a sky scraper’s dive Jeopardizing domain, gambling all – on love’s name
