A Better Version Of Me

The announcement fluttered like an entity, a small butterfly, throughout my blood. My heart beat in my chest and my ears rang with tinny resonance. An overwhelming sense of something lost once returned flooded my brain until I thought I would collapse.

A decision had to be made...

What Do You See?

A stranger looking in my mirror

I don’t like who I see there

He wears my face and he knows my disgrace

He smiles at me

A monster looking in my mirror

I don’t like who I see there

A demon in disguise, he is planning my demise

He smiles at me

What is that creature looking in my mirror?

I don’t recognize who I see there

He no longer wears my face but an intricate form of my disgrace

And he snarls...
