    Poem Commentary

    To blind to see the reality of the monster hiding deep inside me.

    The Fallen One

     I thought I was your angel,
    Your ever burning light,
    To guide you through the darkness,
    And make your wrongs seem right.

    But now I see more clearly,
    It never was that way.
    What I thought made it better,
    Only led you more astray.

    You were everything I wanted,
    And I took so selfishly.
    My inner world ruling,
    Playing out my fantasy.

    I knew I caused you pain,
    I could see it in your eyes,
    But I convinced myself,
    Your embrace was more than lies.

    Now I watch you walk away,
    Dreaming of what cannot be,
    As I slowly realize,
    The real demon here is me.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
