I have two self
Two souls I claim;
Two different self yet
With the same name!
One self that never stops finding
Way for me to my dreams-
Another self who adores me
For everything that I am!
Two different self living
Side by side in peace-
Living like this since birth
With my greater allegiance!
The first self that is responsible
For carrying me here;
Monitoring me, nurturing me
And launching my career
The self that came within me
Directly from my mother-
For taking care of me when she'll
Not be there to watch me over!
Her features I bear everywhere
Stoned with facial expression;
That I wear Her loves follow me
Everywhere yet-
And set up this self;
Within me for a greater good!
Following with the examples
In life that she thought-
This self adores me for everything
That I am-
Protecting like a shield!
That is equivalent to womb
Mother, will I ever be able to
Pay the price to you
Don't hold yourself accountable
For all the times that I brake!
Another self that never
Stopped believing me;
That persists ever in my dreams
To wash away those beasts!
Father, you can't be with me all the time
That's why you set up this-
set within me to watch over
This self gives me courage,
strength and belief in
everything that I do.
Teaches me lessons
Every time I'm broke,
I wouldn't have been here
If this self didn't exist;
I will admire you both.
Till my last breath
To uphold your honour;
In all possible ways
I'll never let anything-
Happen to me and themselves
Because they are nothing but
The whole of you!
With💙
