Eyes looking out the window and gazing upon the world
Narrowing and glaring at the people passing by
Palms bend inward and nails dig within
Teeth grind together flexing unused muscles

And in my fury and rage at the ones outside
My heart cries out in a scream
Agony and hate lashing out from my being

Part of me wants to walk out and confront the demon
Part of me wants to run and hide
Part of me wants to just stand there and stare
And in my absent-mindedness in all-out-anger
I failed to see the window was only a mirror
And my form was only magnified to make my ignorance closer than it
may appear
