The Two of Me

I walk a mirrored course I see
Where shadows always follow me.
They stay and gray a daily play
Like another life, another way

They hold my hand when I write
Imply things that are out of sight.
They lay strange thoughts between each line
Where treading could explode a mine

And doubtful meanings twist my thoughts
And ghosts walk out the symbols wrought.
Where mirrored phantoms come about
And double meanings covert doubt.

I cannot stay these thoughts allure
And cannot sift the sand to pure
There is a gray within my soul
Another life of secret goal

Pulled by forces that surround
Sometimes I feel a puppet bound.

beneath the moon where silence sounds
amid the float of leaving ground
where all your doubts convene the night
reveal your fears in leave of write...

BRAVO!!!! I think within each of us in another. This poem is honest and beautifully put. It makes me want take a look in my own mirror and wonder who or what I may be hiding a part of myself from. Strange thoughts your words evoke in this star. Well done.  

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who is the wisest poet of them all ...

Tis the one who sees beyond the soul
The one who knows the truth found in the goal
The one who dares to look into the shadow's reflection
The one who tastes temptation and still finds direction


In each of us lies a dragon in sleep
In each of lies the secret we cant keep

This to me, says so much of how I feel. I think I will save this and play off the words later when I have more time.

Thank you, Sy

Love the title Seymour "The Two of Me" I'm a Gemini also, it attracted me, and the poem is fantastic, I can relate in many ways.

A wonderful write!
