My Dr Jekyll and His Mr Hyde

My tears are streaming
His eyes were beaming

My thoughts turn to past acts
His thoughts expose the cracks

My never-ending mental torture
His tools are put in order

My race is coming to an end
His race is at the first bend

My end is nigh
His begins on a high

My time here has ended
His time is open ended

I wrote this from the point of view of Dr Jekyll...I cant imagine how this would feel to actually happen...To have a split personality... please feel free to comment..
