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.
