Who am I? You've asked before

and yet you've seen me still.

You see me here and see me there

yet all you see is thrill.

 

I am he, he who fights

when all that's seen is loss

I'm the one who stands for truth

against the man or boss.

 

When you cry, I am the one

who feels your pain and tears

And when your scared, I am he

who conquers all your fears.

 

Your drive and reason, I am he

who pushes beyond all limits.

I'm the kid, who stands and fights

when bullies tell them give it.

 

I'm the fire that dwells inside

and slowly will consume you.

I am hate and I am love

people who live within you.

 

Although I'm known, you see me not

you always try to leave me.

You loose your mind to try and flee

discovering only insanity.

 

I am confusion, I am uncertainty

in all its purest forms

As death is amused, I am the cause

that makes all humans mourn.

 

My power is true, having no end

it stretches beyond the stars.

My impact is devastating, with the smallest strike

I leave horrific scars.

 

Undying and pure, lasting forever

my affect can stir the oceans

I am the flaw and also solution

I am your constant emotions.
