Conquering the Darkness Within

Created: April 5, 2023

Looking at their reflection,
Mixaku felt a sense of perfection.
“Some people are simply better than others,”
they thought, unaware of the lurking danger.

An evil reflection appeared,
smirking and wickedly sneered.
“And you think you’re one of them, motherfucker?”
Mixaku nodded, confident like a tiger.

“I’ve worked my ass off to get where I am,
and I’m not gonna let anyone take that away,”
defiantly, Mixaku proclaimed,
but the evil reflection laughed, cruel and gray.

“You’re not as invincible as you think,
Sooner or later, you’re gonna fall, and you’re gonna fall hard,”
the wicked reflection taunted,
causing anger to Mixaku’s guard.

Mixaku’s denial became shattered,
as the evil reflection spoke of what mattered.
“You’re fucking terrified of failure,
you’ll hurt others to avoid the torture.”

Realizing the truth,
Mixaku was stricken with ruth.
The evil reflection grinned maliciously,
“You’re a fucking monster, just like me.”

Defeated, Mixaku questioned,
“What do I do now?”
The evil reflection mocked,
“Embrace the darkness within you, it’s your vow.”

But Mixaku was determined to break free,
to face the darkness within with glee.
“I can change, I can be better,”
they declared, with a heart full of fervor.

A brick was thrown towards the reflection,
in hopes of shattering the evil deception.
But the reflection caught the brick mid-air,
taunting Mixaku with a wicked glare.

Both were transported to a different place,
a realm of darkness, filled with eerie space.
The evil reflection cackled, “Welcome to my world,
I’ve been waiting for you,” with a voice that swirled.

Mixaku took a deep breath and stepped forward,
ready to fight the darkness onward.
The mirror shattered, the darkness dissipated,
and Mixaku emerged victorious, unabated.

With newfound strength and confidence,
Mixaku knew they could conquer any consequence.
The evil reflection may always be a part,
but Mixaku was no longer afraid of the darkness in their heart.
