I'm the one they warned you about. They didn't want you to know the truth about me. They shunned me and banished me from the public eye. To protect you.
Who are they? Huh. Your teacher, parents, preachers, doctors, the police and every other self-important jerk that you've had the pleasure of meeting. They are the ones who would conceive you, feed you and raise you...smiling in your face...all the while poisoning you and blinding you with lies and deceit.
You may well roll your eyes...tutting at me and all of these new truths which you are so unfamiliar with. Of course you look on every syllable I utter as spite and filth. They've turned you against me before I could get a word in. Me. ME!

Who am I?

Look into my eyes and tell me that you don't already know the answer to that question...no...don't look away...look at me. It's okay...don't be scared.

There. You see it. Do you honestly fear such a familiar sight? Of course you don't fear it. You knew what answer was waiting for you the whole time.

Hah! Don't make me laugh, of course you did. It was right there in the mirror the whole time. You see...you could never truly go your whole life without confronting me at some point. It's human nature. Why are you still running and hiding? Don't be so pathetic, man. They won't find you here...none of them will. No one even saw you there and you didn't leave anything for them to track you by. Besides...it was you or him...am I right? Self defense, am I right? Of course I'm right.

You know that I am. Or is that another fear that you need time to get over...being wrong?HUMAN NATURE. Get used to it. You're home free, so stop running. Stop. Stop. STOP!

There we go, isn't that better? Some time to take your breath...nice and slow...don't want you keeling over and dying after so narrowly missing death at the hands of our friend back there now, do we? No.

Of course you can stop. It's all you Will, It's all you.
This is what I came up with after reading :iconwonderfulrachel:'s deviation of the same name;

In case you hadn't worked it out, this guy's just commited a crime and is being talked to by the darker side of his conscience.
