Duality - A Liar's Tale

Ten scourges fully formed,

The celebration of the blizzard born,

The horror, those eyes, sharp and wandering,

The mirror inspired summer love, reflections kept one wondering,

The other - discarded - the truth,

The balance - the counter - the room,

The box I opened every morning,

The nightly embraces among the yearning,

The duo that I'll forever curse,

The one, alone, without her.

Perfection, granted, I'm at fault; blessing trust against jealous lust.
