Me and I

I've a 2nd personality
no one listens to me
borderline insanity
I'm normal you see

in anger he appears
I come because he fears
he hands out tears
I make myself clear 

to often feeling tired
he lives like he's expired
recently been fired
I went to work wired

he's the reason I fail
without him I'd do well
he's like a fairytale
he knows I'm hell

I've got a first personality
he's weak you see
I earn the salary
I'm normal me

I like the poem as it light inner conflicts within person. A great poet can see his inner and able to put it in poetry.WE all have two personalities. The real one is inner one or our true face. Outer face is for word achievements But inner person is related to emotions.

Normal me is the one that shows up at work, hiding the others, so they can keep their job. I have been doing this for many years.
