Disha Maharaj Poet Rhyme

I Will Be I

I wanted to be her
So that everyone will like me
I decided to hold my guts together
So I can be the bird set free

I tried and tried and tried
But no one appreciated
My own soul became my other side
I forgot why I was created

Then one day she was proved wrong
And maybe so was I
Maybe I scraped my own self with the fork prong
And filled her in hope of something high

I forgot no matter what
I am good and will be good
I don't need to be someone I not
As long as I stood

I totally forgot I will be I
And she will be she
From now on when I look at the sky
I will wish for the six year old me
