THE ORIGINAL OTHER  by alharris

 

The Original Other

 

In the beginning

there was me

then one day

along came the other

 

The original Other

 

Who became the lover

then the mother

 

It took time

before the other

became you

became she

someone with an identity

who moved on to another

a subsequent other

 

Now I find me

to sadly be

The original Other
