Come forward,
You,
Whom I dread;
/
Look into my eyes
At the
Reflection of yourself;
/
Come closer,
And watch your reflection
Become my eyes;
/
Let your anger and hatred
Embrace me;
Strangle me with your spite;
/
But then,
When my breathing
Grows weaker,
/
Remember that,
As I fall,
My eyes closing meekly,
/
You, too,
Can no longer
Stand;
/
You are
No enemy
To me
/
I am
Not alien
To you
