"Get Up Bitch!"

Self doubt confounds me              
i feel like i'm stumbling              
about blindfolded              
where stagnant air              
hangs heavy over my head              
choking me with dust filled clouds              
of self mockery.              
               
i have an alter ego              
i've tied her tonuge              
swept her under the carpet              
though i can hear her now              
shadowing my steps                
she's catching up with me              
talking to me silently through a stitched mouth              
"Get up bitch and do something!"              
               
She tears at her binds                
that i thought strangled her             
"I will take control!"              
               
Her mouth bleeding at the corners              
she's ripped the stitches              
screaming now with a wicked smirk on her face              
she is crashing down on me now              
i feel empowered and enslaved at the same time              
dangerous lady that she is              
gives me voice when i'm too meek to utter a word.              
               
Like thunder her thoughts              
crash down upon my head              
like a whirlwind              
defending me now              
she stands proud inside my shoes              
I find I'm free confounded no more              
set free by my alter ego seeing this lady is me              
razor sharp not the candy coated bullshit i pretend to be.
