DarkPoetry -|- Mistress Morbid -|- The battle within me

The battle within me

Sadness
Misery
My best friend

Torn
In two
Directions

What should
I do?

An angel
On one
Shoulder

A demon
On the
Other

Who should
I listen
To?

"She didn't
Mean to
Do it..."

"Yes she
Did
She hates
You,
Take
Revenge"

Shut up
Shut up

I don't
Know what
To do

"Forgive her..."

"Spit on
Her,
Make her
Feel insignificant"

My head
In my hands

Pounding
Throbbing

I can't
Do it

"It's ok,
Kindness
Is the
Best way..."

"Fuck that
Humiliate her,
Cut her
Down to
Size"

Tears blur
My vision

I shake
My head
NO!

I pound
My fists
On the mirror
Shattering it
All over
The floor

Bloodied hands

weighing up decisions is always a bitch, and this illustrates it so well. (I have to admit though I had visions of Smeegal and Golom from LOTR as your angel and demon...I am brainswashed by the media) Fox

I go through this a lot. I really wish I could find a happy middle zone and get the point across without being a prick. Usually I either come off as either a pushover or an asshole. Heh. You figure it out you lemme know, eh? ~Ship!

Hehe, seriously though, the last minute twist was like BAM. Kinda shocked me that you would be thinking bad things about yourself. I don't see why...
