Here is a short prayer that you can use for your enemy:

Dear God,

I come before you today with a heavy heart, as I am struggling to love and pray for my enemy. It is difficult for me to see them as anything other than the person who has hurt me or caused me pain.

But I know that you have called me to love my enemies and to pray for those who persecute me. So, I ask for your help in this. Please give me the grace to forgive [name of enemy], and to see them through your eyes of love and compassion.

I pray for their well-being and for their salvation, that they may come to know you and the love that you have for them. Please also give me the strength and courage to act with kindness and love towards them, even when it is difficult.

In your holy name I pray, Amen.
