Who Are You- Lsd

Have I seen you here before?
your face, your features, strike 
me like a pale moon; 

Perhaps I've seen you rise,
Up and at 'em in the morning,
Coffee and the breakfast run...

And falling, in the evening 
Fingers and eyes tired,
Hair tumbling at your side.

Perhaps I know you,
Teaching algebra, 
When I faced numbers,
Pushing them inside
At 17

Perhaps I know you,
Face calm and placid
Like a Hindu cow,

Because you're my guardian 
angel,
The little devil on my side,
You're one of them, the 
people,
And I'm forcing them inside
Still at 21
