    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.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
