A Poem About Falling In Love With Yourself (Finding Yourself)

Strange,never thought id be in love again.Until i meet you,such a sweet friend.You is I.Yeah i 
love me!been every place seen everything my eyes did see.Allowed all my tears to flow onto 
your Mulato skin,drying them with your hand,only to liy with me then.Placed your hand under 
my chin to hold it high,and when i refused to love you...you never said goodbye.You stayed 
as if to say,ill be here one more day,when i wanted  us to end.Such a 
caring,patient,sympathetic friend.You have comforted my soul and made me wise,lose the 
ties that have tried to bind me.Opend your eyes so that I may see.And when i stood for 
nothing you stood for me.When i hated you,and wanted you dead,you refused to leave my 
head...until i accepted it and let it be.And i love you so much now that ive learned to love me.
