If I Weren'T Me
If I weren't me, who would I be?
would I be imprisoned, chastised, unseasoned?
If I weren't me, how many personalities would tease?
taking me from ease, subjecting me to infamy?
If I weren't me, why on earth would I be you?
would you bring out the best in me?
have me love you for all eternity?
I see you in me
as sure cure for my therapy.
