      I can’t sleep…again!

      Tomorrow is looming and once again I’m fearful of not being heard or taken seriously. But in the meantime my brain decided poetry was the answer…

      The man with 2 faces

      I know a man with 2 faces
      Who never let me in
      I know a man who’s had so many chances
      I don’t know where to begin

      I know a man with 2 faces
      I don’t think he has a heart
      Because that man has broken me down
      And torn my life apart

      I know a man with 2 faces
      You only see his charming one
      You think he’s funny and bright and kind
      Believe me, you are wrong

      You see that man with 2 faces
      He saves the other face just for me
      Weaving a web of lies and fear
      So I live in confusion & misery

      I know a man with 2 faces
      He manipulates me for fun
      Been happening so long don’t know who I am
      I don’t recognise who I’ve become

      I’ve loved that man with two faces
      I’ve put him first each day
      I’ve clung on to that tiny glimmer of hope
      That one day he will change

      Then one day I had enough
      I thought of them and ME
      I took the step, I asked for help
      I started to set myself free

      I know this path is long & hard
      But this path at least is MINE
      Im starting to dream that man with two faces
      Will not beat me down this time

      If you love a man with two faces
      If you know one too
      Maybe one day you’ll set yourself free
      And believe just for once in YOU
