Alter Ego

Poet:  Ken Jordan
Poem:  Alter Ego 
Edited by:  Sparkle Jordan
written:  July1986



Today 
I've made 
the 
conscious choice
to 
let you go -

The strangle hold 
that 
you once had on me,
was 
blood to my soul -

I was hypnotized 
by 
your presence, 
and 
mysterious ways -

I Didn't 
have a clue, 

that 

it was 
my alter ego
in 
disguise-

You cloned 
me,

I fell 
under your spell -

I remember 
when 

I would walk
through 
fire for you -

and 
feel no pain.

But,

When 
you appear

I'm 
not the same -

So
The
Good Lord, came 
to 
the rescue-

Today, I've made 
the 
conscious choice 
to
let you go -

I chose 
something Devine-

I am strong 
now.

Stronger than ever
before -

My 
strength, shook me 
from 
the coma 

that 
was distant 
to 
kill me -

I give praises 
to 
The Almighty,

I am 
no longer 
under your spell.

Today I've made
the 
conscious choice
to 
let you go -

Poet Destroyer A July 2, 2015 at 7:55 PM Ken, that is deep, I wonder if you made the choice because that is best. Or are you too brave. No matter I super love the poem. LINDA Ken Jordan July 3, 2015 at 9:52 AM Hello Destroyer A, thank you for your comment, I appreciate you stopping by. Well, I think that we all wear a mask, we wear it at work, at fancy restaurants, when we meet new people. I think that we all have alters, but who are we really? Always Ken
