You whisper within me
Born from myself
Of my shell
To stare out of me
into my face
With brooding eyes
I see your mastery of me
For me to change
to the face of you
of a creature
that passes from within
Maleficent and immoral
To return unashamed
To settle within
To hollow the shell
Is your face my face
Am I the creature
That whispers within

Thanks Desmond, your words are a wonderful exploration of the hidden, darker sides of self.
Desmond,
What an exquisite poem as you delve into your inner self to explore and consider those movements which often pass unnoticed yet are there all the same. I must re read this a few times and ponder more.
Thank you for this. A good poem.
Keith
