Deeper Within

 I am not your 5 mintiue cigarette break,

you cannot light me whenever you're in the mood,

and put me out when you're tired of me 

 

I am not your PlayStation,

you cannot play me when you're bored,

then turn me off when you're losing 

 

I am not a piece of paper,

that waits to be used,

only to look forward to being at the 

botton of a trashcan

 

I am not a clock,

that tells you the time that's left,

for you only to forget about the time before 

 

I am not the alcoholic beverage,

you desire to drown your sorrows away 

 

I am not the thoughts you've thought about saying, 

only to spare my feelings, 

but the words you've said to break my heart

that has been broken many times before 

 

I am not your peacemaker, 

but the peace within the maker 

 

I am not a fallen angel,

but the angle that has fallen,

looking for the way back

to the path of righteousness and purity

 

What am I? No one knows

Some say evil, others say a mystery 

that cannot be solved 

 

I am your wrost nightmare

I am the combination of both good and evil,

a mystery and a crime,

heaven and earth,

peace and tranquility, 

light and dark,

the moon and the stars

 

I am everything there could be thought of

in one small person with an open mind
