Two evils lurking in the dark.
Two poisons seeping into the heart.
Close wisely, stay wary,
For their burden is too much to carry.
*
A scar surrounded by many,
Or a strike, only once but hurting plenty.
Two evils ripping you in half,
Sabotaging any chance to laugh.
*
Pulling and tugging you
Begging you to see what is true.
Pick your poison, both are equal,
Find the lesser of the two evils.
*
Lies and deceit sneering from behind,
Creating doubts that anyone is truly kind.
Two evils making scars,
Lighting fires on a soul once before charred.
*
Caught between the ones you love,
Both of them giving shove after shove,
Until you fight to break apart,
From the two evils after your heart.
*
Two evils waiting for the chance,
To destroy you with the pain they enhance.
Reluctant to choose between the two,
They are only waiting for you.
