Too Many People

Every hour there is a new person

the first person is happy

the second person is sad

the third person is extreamly joyful

the fourth person is depressed

Some mornings there comes a fifth person who feels like all hope is gone

but then the sixth person comes and shows the fifth person that life is beautiful

but why must all these people show up in such a timely manner?

could it be that they all want something different?

could they all be visiting the same person?

or do they all have something in common?

if you chose all of the above your right

all of them know the same person and they are taking over her life

that life is mine and i am all six people.

tormented everyday with different voices and different personalities only shown by me

nobody understands me but who would ever believe that all the extra six people is really me?

Impressive write, this is a great way to describe how you and everyone have multiple personalities. It is funny how we go through our day and each 'person' comes out of us at different times for different reasons. Great Job. ~Chris Matt

I like this poem of multiple personalities. Which personification will rule the day. Excellent piece.
