I Can Be Me - Maybe

I know that I can sometimes be
Someone other than just me

But I do however see
That I probably need to be

My own self and no one else

I therefore wish that I could be
Less like you and more like me

Cos then I can be totally free
In charge of my own destiny

To write my own poetry
