Alter Ego
What is this thing that lives in me?
With woeful eyes that cannot see.
It moans and cries within my soul.
It shatters and shakes me
And leaves me cold.
It steals my ambition
It takes my will
And leaves me here,
Depressed and still.

3. I would say that the speaker
has outsmarted the "thing that lives" in him, by exposing it.
