The Man and Me

One day while going for a walk. A man and I had a long talk. I’ve heard you many times before. And try very hard to ignore. I wish forever you’d go away. But you are so determined to stay. Stop telling me things to make me mad. Or reminding me of things that make me sad. Why can’t you just say good things to me? Like, telling me how happy you want me to be. Let’s prepare to say our goodbyes today. And then I would like you to go away. The man replied back to me and said. I am the voice inside of your head. We’ve been together from the start. I plan to remain and to never part. It is I who push you to make a stand. When you are attacked by any man. If others impose in some places you go. I’m the one who encourages you to say no. I know many times we do not agree. But you can’t be you if you don’t have me.
