Blend
I have always wanted to be someone
I became no one in the end
A rootless path I wanted to plant
How did I ever make life blend?
Things I did not know until
They told me I am wise
I’m too proud I feel
Did I profess ionize with lies?
And I became someone to them
No one... to myself
The helping hands I lend
And the lonesome self I dwell
Chasing thus to one day form
For that one day I can speak out truly
I realize myself was gone
Having found myself newly
Inevitably, I did become someone
Perhaps a no one in the end
That one path I chose to run
How did I ever make life blend?
