The Other Me

The Other Me

A Poem by Aly
"

It's about the darker side of me. The one I keep hidden.

"

There are two of me.
The other me hides where no one else can see.
She is locked away safe from the world,
always hiding deep inside my tortured soul.
I don't think I'll ever be whole.
She only comes out when I am angry or sad.
It makes me feel so very bad.
When she comes out there is no stopping her.
It's like she makes everything a blur.
Tears fall from my eyes
while I keep hoping someone will hear my cries.
She keeps messing with my mind.
The true me I will never find.
I think she's my evil twin.
With her I can never win.
I am always crying,
dreaming of dying.
I scream out in pain.
I keep hoping it'll start to rain.
Blood starts to flow from my wounds
because she came out and made me feel doomed.
When she's in hiding,
I am fake smiling
and waiting to commit suicide.

OH MY God!!!! I have to say that your writing inspires me. This is a great poem. I always feels as if there are 2 sides to me. The one that goes behind the closet and cries and destroys things and the one that has the giant mask on and forces a smile.
Keep Expressing!
