Poem: Shhh… I can't stand it. The push, the pull, is too much to take. How do they know? They don't understand. They don’t even try. I know though. They can only imagine. Do they? I think not. Why? Why do they hide? Why do they fake? They think they know. Only I know. Maybe others. But do they? Do we all know? Do we all care? Why would they? Their own little world. Their own little lives. They only pretend to listen. Some just don’t. I know. I live it. I love it. I hate it. I never want it to end. I never want it to return. One personality, two personalities. Neither match. One doesn’t understand the other. One doesn’t want to. Which one? Which one today? Can't forget. Maybe never will. The past. The past. Which do I want? None. All. Some. Now. Which day of the week? Depends. The up. The down. Want both. Want none. Hide in the black. Live in the light. Which one? Never know.
