Untill Then

In the mirror  
I see three people;  
Me, my reflection,  
and my two-faced alter ego;  
Defined by the lie that lies  
Behind lives of mine    
only to be identified  
as the hero;  
and the root of all evil  
I'm dedicated to be    
deceitful  
deceiving or misleading  
people into a shallow grave  
or the bottom of a deep pool;  
Taking a hold of control  
on me isn't right,  
I've tried to change    
the instincts  
of the rabies  
on this pitbull    
So whats left for me?  
I've lived long enough  
to see myself become  
my own worst enemy  
Nothing to stop me untill    
the vet drops the tranquilizer  
shots, and finally puts the    
animal down and    
out of my  
misery    
Untill then  
I'll continue to write  
and speak my story  
Day to day basis
and immortalize it
in my poetry
