By Yohanna Abdullah
I can be mean
That is what he said
When I am high
I care less
About the feelings of others
I say it as I feel it
With a lot of Pain
And Anger
And dish out the same
To my beloved
I can be mean
Yes, very hurtful
The opposite of Sweetness and Light
Usually quietly caring
Are there two persons in me?
The good and the bad?
The happy and the sad?
If I don’t like That side of me
Why would others too?
Who get the brunt of my mean alter ego
Only people who know me know
Just how mean I can be
Brutally honest
Brutally uncaring
I hate this side of me
Is it me
Is it the illness?
Wither the difference?
You tell me
