Do you know,
the other side of me?
Where the grass is greener,
and the soul is darker.
Do you know only,
my second face?
Not like the rest,
the one I keep for best.
Do you know,
if this is sunny side up
heads up, tales down,
turn that frown
upside down?
I think you know,
Little Miss Sunshine,
but have you met Judy
within or without?
Do you know,
the essence of me?
Not that of vanilla,
of sugar and spice,
but one of fear.
Do you know,
the other side of me?
Where the grass is greener,
and the soul is darker.

I love this one. Everyone has a seldom seen side.
Thank you – indeed we do! 🙂
Very insightful. We all have our dark side, but it is not something one cares to discuss. Virginia
So true – some of my darker demons have been turfed out into the light – they didn’t like it and ran away!
omg Alex, this is so beautiful.
(I really should check your blog daily…)
This is so much me, it is probably all of us.. hiding our dark sides.
Aw thank you!! I tend to have a blitz and check out a few blogs at a time – I follow so many people it is impossible to check them all out!! I could make it a full time job!!
