This is a poem about the two versions of myself. Thanks (as always) for reading.
Daytime Molly is fifteen and neat
With hazel eyes and a disposition,sweet.
She smiles and talks with her daytime friends
With an overwhelming cheeriness that seems to not end.
Daytime Molly is thoughtful and almost glows
Despite her odd secret that nobody knows.
Ah,that dark and unique secret that only she sees
Is the reason that Daytime Molly is but a mask,indeed.
For when the sky changes to an evening hue,
If you look,Daytime Molly might give you a clue.
On her face the sky shines it's orange light,so soft,
And soon when it's darker,Molly's mask must come off.

Oh,you now know of Daytime Molly's ways,am I right?
Well,only Midnight Molly remains in the night.
Midnight Molly is tormented and (as she feels) old.
Her eyes are now darkened and her disposition,cold.
She frowns at he papers and only talks to herself.
She writes and peers over morbid books on the shelf.
Midnight Molly is cynical and full of woe,
Especially as she listens to the sounds the night show.
There is actually a sound that is sharp to the ear
but it only rings when there is only silence to hear.
Midnight Molly is tortured by the awful,piercing note.
It rings in her ears and spikes a scream in her throat.
The only time it stops and Midnight Molly cannot be seen
Is when she finally rests and begins to dream.

So,you tell me,which Molly is true?
Is it Molly the bright or Molly the blue?
Daytime Molly battles the darker side at night
With Midnight Molly,who never gives up a fight.
So which is the real Molly? Are they both the same?
These are the questions that always remain.
