You're trapped and feeling like the worlds closing in on you. The walls of a tiny box, claustrophobic in it's need to smother you. Crawling around, on this tiny box-floor, trying to avoid the dirt that is the color of your mind, and trying to get away from the bugs that are your demons, you're screaming for release. No one can hear you, you see, not even me, and l'm the only one who knows. Or the only one who cares, anyway. lf you were to picture me, you'd probably try to imagine a girl, pretty and sweet, maybe with pretty blond hair and sweeet blue eyes. No. Black hair - the color of my soul. Death green eyes - the color of jealousy, envy. YOu'd picture yourself - l am you. The other half. And even as you cry, trying to escape, you hear my voice hissing in your mind, you're screaming and fleeing. But l follow you anywy, so you use music, volume so high, to drown me out. But it doesn't work. l'm inside you, remember, and all you'll acheive is deafaning yourself, and then where will you be? l'm your other half, you see, the part of you without a conscounce, and you can't ever be free of me. l'm your other half - without me, what would you be? Alone. l'm the only one that listens. |

this is a really good piece, you did a good job on the way you protrayed your inner self. it's so true that people always contradict themselves, because there's always your other half telling you to do and not do this and that. tonia =) |

Hey girl, this is powerful! I just noticed it was posted way back and boosted up by someone, which is a good thing as I missed it the first time. *Thunderous applause* Love, Liz xxx "Time has told me not to ask for more, one day our ocean will find its shore" ~Nick Drake |
