Two Sides, Two Stories

Racing to the end of the tunnel to beat my other half
Knocking over those who get in my way,
While she helps pick them back up.
She's irritatingly pleasant and sociable.

I am not interested in what others care about
I spread the brutal truth,
She projects words of wisdom.
Angelically she glides,
Menacingly my feet pound.
I am almost there and I can feel it,
But I know she's close behind.

She wants peace brought to the world,
I believe in karma.
I suffer for no one,
She is willing to sacrifice herself.
She forgives people,
I even the score, I've made it!
I look behind me,
No one there to catch up...

I peer at my reflection in the puddle below me and I see
A hard stare with soft features,
Piercing eyes with a beautiful smile,
An expressive gaze with a long story.
