Umme Salma Alam Poet I do not know?

Multiple Personality Disorder

There are so many voices heard and unheard in me.
I want to listen to the silences that are making noise inside.
                                  You define me a “you” though.
                             One voice orders me to go,
                       (Or should I say I?)
                            Other pleads me to remain,
                      (Or should I say I?)
                                                    One bullies me,
                        (Or should I say I?)
One empathizes me,
                        (Is it the prime me?)
 Which one is mine?
Or 
What do I want?
Or
Who am I?
Perhaps I should call her who reside 
Deepest inside my heart and have a walk together.
