I Can Be Me - Maybe

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

And to leave yours to when 

We next meet and greet

Reading our own poetry

Without my vanity
