He Always Lies

Goku's poem about Kakarotto

~

I feel him

I hear him

He's still here

After all these years he stays in my head

And he tortures me there

He isn't strong enough to come out

So he just stays in my head

Like a second personality

But he's more than just that

He is a person

And he hates me

Because I am the one

Who is keeping him trapped

Like a prisoner in his own body

But if he escapes, where will I go?

I cannot get rid of him

So I must ignore him

And just pray that someday he'll leave

But sometime's it's so hard...

So hard to resist him

You see, he whispers things

Things that only I hear

Things only I understand

And it drives me insane

Because I am forced to listen

But no, he will not take me

I am loyal to my family and friends

He can't destroy my love

So he is helpless

Oh, but he lies

He lies all the time

He tells me things about myself

That aren't true

Tempting me with words of evil

Trying to break me so he can be free

But I don't believe a word, oh no

I ignore him

But he talks all the time

I fear that someday I will believe him

I fear I will give in

And it is this fear that makes me wonder

Is my existance safe?

Perhaps it would be better

If I just went away

Died, taking him with me

For he can't exist without me

And I can't exist without him

We are the same and we are different

Like the Earth needs day and night

Our body needs the both of us

But will the day end?

What if the night comes out?

The darkness that is him?

He will cover the world in his darkness

Using our body

He is mad

But maybe it is I who is mad also

Maybe it is I who shouldn't be here

That is what he whispers

And that is what I must deny

For if I agree with a single word

He will take me

See, I will become weak if I listen

And he will become strong

And I cannot let him become strong

Maybe it would be better if I died

But would they call me back?

But if I come back, he will

He is a virus, he sticks to me

Eating away at my mind

My sanity is stolen by him

I know who I am

But I question where I stand

And what I am

But I can't give in

I won't ever tell him know I doubt myself

Because I mustn't give in

I must stay and protect those who need me

I mustn't let him have them

And that is why I stay

He is my worst enemy

And try as I might I can't kill him

So I must just ignore him

Close my ears to his lies

Because he always lies.
