Who Am I

Some days I feel normal
Like I'm on top of the world
Then out of nowhere I hear them
Coming out the shadows
Whispering things that don't make sense
Trying to take control
Can it really be possible
To share a space with someone else
Someone so filled with
Hatred and suspicion
Can't trust anyone when they're around
Everyone's trying to get us
That's what they think
So they plant the seed
You question what intentions are
Who's real an who's not
Then everything goes quiet
So I feel like it was all imaginary
Just as I start to go back to normal
They creep back in
Are they really real
Are they really part of me
If they are
How long before they take me over
If they do
Will anyone know
