Once Upon a time
I had a funny feeling
From this funny feeling
I could grab nothing

In a fix, perplexed
I felt so disturbed
I looked around, Searched around
And all I saw was me

Then I stepped out of me
And looked back at me
Nothing new, nothing old
But my present me

And that me looking at me
Saw nothing else but me
Not only me in my face
But on my sides, at my back
And all around me

Me in my face,
My physical strength
Me on my right,
My ego, my will

The one on my left,
was more of anger
He at my back,
A hundred percent sadness

Hanging from the top,
A drop of arrogance
Looking from bellow,
A multitude of humility

I looked around the corners
And I saw more of me
So scared and bemused
That in the middle was emptiness

Bracing myself together,
Putting all personalities in one,
My new feeling was different
My new feeling was relief

"I", was my physical appearance
Void of all the rest
And oh! What I felt before was not funny
What I felt before was loneliness
