My alter ego is who I want to be
He walks in slow strides,
each step as coordinated as the next.
And whether it be day to day or a formal occasion,
He is always dressed his best.

While he may be my alter ego,
his dexterity can still be grasped.
And each day I become more like him,
is better than the last.

While I do not hate who I currently am,
I'd rather be him than me.
and as I continue reinvent myself,
he is all the world will see.

Who I am now will cease to exist,
but I will never be completely gone.
And even though I shall become my alter ego,
My old self will always continue on.
