She comes for me on quiet nights,
Or when I'm deep in thought,
She prods at all my weaknesses,
She is what I am not.

"What good are you to those you love?"
She whispers in the dark,
"What use does this world have for you,
Who will never leave a mark?"

Ever near, yet never 'there',
She speaks to only me,
Slow poison, no one notices,
Though I want to make them see.

Now her mind draws close to mine,
Temptation ever nearer,
I wish I could avoid her,
But she's inside my mirror

...Hm. I really don't know what to say here. I'm on an inspiration kick, and...yeah.

The first, second, and fourth stanzas of this one have been stewing in my file for about two months, but it was missing something, so I filled in the third stanza and it kinda...clicked. Yey?

Very nice. You're right, the third stanza really does make it all fit together.

I can see why. I'm sure it's frustrating to have such good material but not be able to fit it together. The third stanza is the perfect way to do it.

hi this is my sig
I really, really like this. I connect with this, really.
I'm too hard on myself.

I MISS YOU.
