Which One? ? Poem by Alyssa Daniel

When you look at me,
Who do you see?
Do you see her, or
Do you see me?
Or do you see
Who I used to be?

Which one do
You like more?
Which ever one you
Pick, are you sure?
She could be different
At her core.

All of us have done
Our share of wrongs,
We try not to
Linger to long.
We try to
Act so strong.

We all share
The same heart
Been given so
Many new starts.
Although at times
We may come up short.

So many things
Need to come clean.
So many bad things
We've seen.

So many wall
We put up.
Anyone else
Wnat this cup?

There has been so
Much hatred inside.
Tears have been
Forced to hide.
No one really to go
to, to confide.

Everytime I choose
To go to you,
You tell me
To be all true.
I can't cuz
Everytime I do

I always
Hurt someone.
No good deed
Goes undone.
This life seems
To get less fun.

Just tell me
Who you want.
Now that you've seen'
All of us,
Which one do
You tend to trust?

SO...

When you look at me,
Who do you see?
Do you see her, or
Do you see me?
Or do you see
Who I used to be?
