My Alter Ego

Together, side by side, Shoulder to shoulder, One destination, one path, Sparkles in our eyes Winds in our hairs Two hearts beating as one, We walked a synchronized walk At even pace, at an even tempo Smiles on our lips Under a brilliant blue sky with warm spring sunshine carrying us aloft on the wings of the breeze, With love in our hearts We were poised to soar high, But then… One of us went rogue, became self-conceited, cocky egomaniac and… created God; Fear made the other make the devil; One created God in his own image, In his own image the other made the Devil. ~05/08/23 ~Contest: A Brian Strand Premiere #1215
