Locked within this reflection
I desperately seek
entrance to your world.
Icy anger surrounds you,
steeds of annihiliation
seeking your destruction.
I seem unable to reach
into my mind,
to clear the fog
of my own terror.
You await my decision.
Can I overcome my inner demons,
or shall I remain
barren and empty,
unable to give
the fortitude and strength
to overcome my own barriers
of torment.
I see you awaiting
my decision.
I am frantic
to overcome these demons
of irrational,
to join with you
in fulfillment.

Such a beautiful take on the picture. The wording is very vivid; I can really see you standing before that mirror, trying to decide to safe yourself. Only one comment: I'd put a question mark behind torment, since that stanza's really a question. Good luck in the contest.

very well written
Your word express this womans strong desire to overcome her demons, so she is able join her love in a fulfilling life. I can feel the anxiety as she tries to make up her mind. I particularly like the first line: "Locked within this reflection."
Thank you for entering this contest, and good luck!
