Whom Do You Know

let me tell you my story or a little confession something that make me low and feel down at night when i stare at my eerie silhouette and during the day in broad daylight l have two shades on my dark shadow one is plain the other looks peculiar and Curio the one who's darker i guess that's me the other a haunting maniac he might be I wonder sometimes if the other is someone else or is it possibly why I have these two names And if so which one of the duo is probably me More which one do people actually see I have voices too that I hear in my head from the look of it both are sad and bad one sounds like me so does the other too. Day and night I listen carefully as the duo argue At times I stand and look into the mirror And ardor the faces I see as I step nearer The first is stern when the other is smiling And the first is mean when the other is joking l walk daily in dilemma of which one of me to present which one to be docile and which to be prominent which one should be ,which one am l which one to live ,and which one to die So whom do you know, if I should know Or you have seen not only two but more Tell me is it the sad man or the steady joker, or the sympathetic man or the mean mocker

A sad poem. We mostly have two dogs waring inside us and the one that wins the battle is the one we feed the most. So which one are you feeding the most the bad or the good. The Holy Bible can tell you more about this war. Sara
