Dueling Dualities
The song "Hi Ren" by the artist Ren feeds into my love for dichotomies, paradoxes, and juxtapositions. Watch the music video and write whatever inspires you. I'll choose the winner on 1/03, which is my sister's birthday. She's the kind angel to my scary demon :) Here's the link: https://youtu.be/s_nc1IVoMxc?si=JAr3B1qjzoHGLJaf
Hi, who am I?
I look in the mirror and see a stranger.
I know it's me this image has my face but the insides are lies.
Who am I really?
I have created a persona for others to like, but the problem is I don't like him very much.
He's the ultimate "my guy," he's funny but shy, artistic and tormented but there's more than meets the eye.
He's played this role for so long he believes it but when alone he's faced with the real shit.
I look in the mirror and the conversation goes again, "Hi, who am I?"
"Hey, you're THAT guy."
