    The Mirror


    Shhhhh my worst enemy is here
    He comes and he goes
    Why he comes back
    I don't even know
    I could…. I know I could
    kill him with ease
    put the gun to his head
    and watch him bleed
    I could do it in; only a second,
    I would even be cool about it and let you pick the weapon
    Die by a gun; or die by a knife
    Your blood would come out with one quick slice

    I try so hard to find a way
    To get rid of you, but you stay,
    Why the hell; won't you go,
    Why can't you just die, just leave me alone,
    I was doing so well but then you came back
    Why can't you just die and cut me some slack

    I was trying, trying to do so well
    But then you came back and now I'm in hell
    Now the tears are running down my cheek
    And I want to yell but I cannot speak
    It would be so easy; I could do it real fast
    Put the gun to my head and let the bullet blast
    But killing you would do me no good
    For if I could do it; you know I would

    Everyone tells me you'll be ok
    You'll get through it; tomorrow is another day
    But that though only goes so far
    Why was I dealt this deck of cards
    But know I left here with the shit you caused
    While you sit back and look smug and applaud
    Well you've won; so what should I do
    You turn from the mirror and hand me the noose

    So now we are dead and there will be
    Nothing more because I was my worst enemy.

    This is so deep, well expressed. continue to choose life.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
