I did not choose her. She did not choose me. We were forced upon each other By a woman with a clipboard. Two personalities Contrasting so completely And yet "You fit the part" They tell me. So now she is mine Now I am hers. She's in here somewhere; They all are. I just need to keep digging I just need to cast a line I just need to gently coax her to the surface I just need to understand. She is me I am she We are one Amidst the curtains.
