Lurking in the shadows, another face in the crowd. Only glimpses, I'll catch. It'll smile in my direction, but I feel like it's snarling. We've come face to face and it'll try to reach out, to hold my hand. It offers solutions to my problems. It's soothing voice draws me close. I feel warm and secure. Then I'll stop, realizing what it is and what it says. It screams with rage and snatches for me, but I'm already gone. Every so often, it'll try to reel me back but I have learned not to take the bait for it hides a hook. Yes, I'm tempted to take in it's comfort when I'm broken but I must stay strong, for myself and others. I think I can survive without it's "solutions."
