The Two of You

Author: Spartacus2012

So often there seems to be
the two of you
one who is scared of love
one who's heart is true...

I see the two of you
I try and make room
no matter what they say or do
sometimes wanting to split them in two...

When you lashed out at me
I felt like an abandoned child
the medicine will set you free
and return again your smile...

I love the two of you
sometimes the light escapes and dims
our love and faith will get us through
the one of me and the two of you...

I think we all have two sides, but deppression is being in a dark place feeling like no one in the world cares about us. Heartfelt poem Ken.

Never been much for wearing masks. I guess that's why I hate it when I feel I have to, like at work. You have to pretend to like others who you really abhor, so I can relate to anxiety and depression around people.
