Beside Myself


beside myself I stand
fit and able,
ready to flee if need be,
ready to fight if required,
wound up tight, 
stretched out and capable;
beside myself I stand,
looking at the other me
who seldom appears
except when mentioned
and who can defend
what needs to be;
beside myself I stand
first and foremost
to myself be true,
then others who
call upon me to be there,
right or wrong...
I am here with you baby.
