me or ME

Do you want me to be me or ME
the me you know is loving and kind,
supportive and comforting,
warm and soft, understanding and encouraging,
she watches what she says and how she acts,
and has a tight hold over her emotions and actions.

ME on the other hand is cruel and uncaring,
cold and hard, demonic and calculating,
she wants to rip people to shreds emotionally,
and stop on those who anger her, she has no control.

A battle wages on inside of everyone.
This battle wages on inside of me.
You call me an angel, but are you sure I am not a demon,
hiding and biding my time, like a spider in the web,
waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.
ME has imagined playing with their emotions,
drawing them in and crushing them.
me would never let ME do those things,
for no one would ever show me love or compassion if
ME was let loose on the human race.

So be careful what you say when you tell me to be myself
there are two hiding within, battling and strugling
and one day the other will win.
I sit here, like an angel on a throne, loved by almost all
but I wish to dwell in darkness and mayhem.
me feeds ME with drama and despair, sometimes causing injury so ME can feed.
me feels like a broken mirror, cursed and ugly and tossed aside.
I am learning to cope with ME, but are you sure your ready?
You tell me you can take it all, but ME and me truly wonders if you could.
We both love you, unconditionally, but when ME takes over I pray your capacatiy to forgive
is all enduring.
