The shadow in the mirror

No one scares me like the shadow like the shadow in the mirror

The shadow knows my darkest thoughts

The shadow tells me things I dont want to hear as I beg it to stop

The shadow listens to my sobs while adding more words to fule them

So I dare you

you with no knowlege of me

to try and beat me down with hateful words and looks of distain.

Oops, that's what an angry guy says ... and maybe wrong.   What if you look the other way?  that's how your anger passes. Peace and love!  Love with peace .... too!
