My Other Side

Just searching my inner self one day
I discovered there was an other side to me
Like the other face of coin or the back of my hand
It was similar to me yet different from me
It was open to me yet somehow hidden
It shared my thoughts and gave me strength
It felt my pain and even laughed with me
It guided me and encouraged me
And when I felt let down, it loved me

Knowing my other side is like discovering myself
I know I am not alone, though I may have felt
I have a friend within me and my greatest guide
I have someone who will always be on my side
I am no longer afraid and no longer in pain
I feel no shackles and no restrain
I am at peace with me and my other side
And I understand that it will be my best guide!
