Both of Me
Defined this one by what I do
But what does it mean to you
Is it accomplishment you see
Or the other person I’ve come to be
Two minds working side by side
Trying to balance life’s bumpy ride
Is relevance now in the past
Will accomplishments really last
Understand this from where you are
The only way to see is from afar
Too close you find us two
Easy to confound and confuse
Conflict unbalanced by change
Priorities, thoughts rearrange
Energetic me is forever younger
The other me somewhat stronger
Ying and yang of who we are
Bringing peace and sometimes war
