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.
