The Essence Of Who I Am

I have two different sides 

The difference is one bares her teeth

She lashes out like the crashing cold tide 

I can’t let her win 

I can never succeed in calming her screams 

You probably haven’t seen her because she likes to hide 

I hate her

We are like black and white stripes 

Imprisoned on the same page 

But her convincing me that being in a cage

Like her

Is normal 

That she is in control 

M.A.P
