Two in One.

Two in One.

When I close my eyes I know I am alone.

This is my sactuary, this is my home.

I have my own light, my own force of good.

Here, there is no want, or have, nor should.

Despite these truths I know what lurks inside.

A demon of my own creation I can not hide.

Two halves of a whole completing my picture.

One of passion and indifference.

One of urban want and wilderness need.

One of loathing and reverence.

One of selfishness and gernerosity.

Two halves of a whole my monster and I.

With nothing to but deny and lie.
