Schizophrenia

I swear I must be

Schizophrenic

Because I have

Multiple personalities.



And it’s not like each one

Has an on/off switch;

I don’t get to choose

Which one you’ll meet.



I’ve grown so accustomed

To each one that

I don’t think I will be able

To change myself.



I wish I could blend

Them all together

To create one personality

I could live with.



But I fear, out of spite,

They will merge together

All the worst qualities

Of each face I wear.



And, if this happens,

I think I would be worse off

Than I am now.

So I’ll just learn to live with them.
