This is me. I am as tall as the tallest mountain, as deep as the deepest sea. I hold my ground against whatever comes at me.
I am not human. Nor am I anything else. Not that you have seen before at least. I do not feel fear. Not love. Not hate.
I do not feel. I am merely a shadow of life. I live off you. I don't need food or drinks. Strong am I. I am your strengt, opinion, pride.
I am your ego. I know you, all of you, even as you do not know yourself. I can control you when I want to. Make you rise up, or fall down. Beg or turn your back.
You need me. You need me to survive. Without me, you would be empty. You would be too much. I am the all and the nothing. You love me.
I am not what you wished for. You wanted love without hate, both for yourself and everyone and everything else. You wanted everything to go your way, without having to work for it. You wanted peace and justice. You wanted everything to be right.
I can make that happen. Through me, that can happen. But do not struggle. I can be your pride, I can talk everyone into loving you, I can help you give what you can, and take only what you must.
I can show you love. Through me, you can get it all. Come home to me. See how I walk and talk. See the change. And love it.
"Alice"
