Two-faced Monologue

Two-faced Monologue
by me(whatever)
to: IA- Elegy Context

You smiled painfully,
and with the resolution
of a dying child
you turned the clock back.

"It's a count down",
but you are always the same #.
If you could escape your mind
by climbing into mine.

You are in love with dreams,
and that expression of yours
disgusts me when you can't wake, yet
realize you are still asleep.

Let us play a game,
one where you(me) shuts up
and leaves the other forever.
It's not hide and seek.

I'd like those ideals
that were taught as truth,
and shown as lies
to crumble like dust in this world.

There will never be a place,
for either you or me.
I'd like to be on my own,
where someone like "you" doesn't exist.
