Identity Poem by David Uche

PART 1
Who is he?
he is you, who is me,
can't you see, i am he
he is me, i am him,
we are one, we are me..

been talking to my self lately
been seeing how my mind's crazy
been seeing how i'm changing
like something in me keeps growing, maturing,
its overwhelming, how i've been living, nurturing an uninvited guest inside of me,
to see if it's a test
to test me if i see, believe in him which is me to see that he is the key
he keeps saying all this shit and am i like i just want to be free! !
free..what does that means (what does it means to be free?)
me answering
i go to the mirror to see me
but then i see him
who his not real

conversation (me answering the question)
me: to be free is to be me
only me, not with you

him: i am you
you are me
so what's your deal

me: listen, i don't like the fact that you're with me
i keep hearing voices inside of me
you're probably the reason i cannot sleep

him: you should be grateful you have me
remind you, i was with you when no one was, sigh 😔
i was with you from the beginning of dawn
when you friend ditched you, i didn't. listen
i am the reason you made it this far
i am the reason you have all this bars
Don't you want to be a man?
i am the reason you have all these scars

me: I sit down and think
smoking my cigar
trying to get high
(takes one puff and begins to rant)
"YOU ARE THE REASON I'M NOT YET A MAN
YOU ARE THE REASON I LIE ALL THE TIME
YOU ARE THE REASON I'M BEHIND THIS BARS"

him: chill, see
if not for me, you'd probably still be fat
I am the reason you shine like a star
(HA HA HA.. he laughs)
do you want to know the real truth, he asks?
i am the reason for all your lies
i am the reasons you can't drive a car
i am the reason for all of your cry
the girls that you're picking, you think they're your lines
please just say yes and let me know that you've lied
i am your inner you, the real avatar

me: You are the reason i think all the time
listen ME, i'm devising a plan
to remove all your dirty thoughts out of my mind
to say what i do and do has i've said
to kill you then hide and still be alive
to say goodbye to all my family and friends
now that i know you've come to an end

him: when you get to the high state
a stage where you and your mind debate
the thought that you think are great
awake, a subconscious that you create
date, for that very day i was made
plate, on it i am weighing both scale
fate, i am the reason behind all your hate
so you want to kill me (ha😂)
(he laughs and he cry in pretend)
if there's a funeral who will attend? 🤨
see, let's all just make an amend
you and me, let us depend …
together defend and protect our mind
well if that's not possible, you can't still kill me then
for i am you, you are me, i am your friend
