Loving a Blue Rose

I am not me
I'm someone else
So when you say you love me
It's hard for me to believe
It's even harder for me to feel
The love you have for me
Every bit of it feels unreal
Staring in your eyes I see love everywhere
And in the center of it I see my reflection right there
But I feel isolated, allienated from such feelings
My heart remains unchanged, it remains unmoved
Love who loves you
Ain't that right? 
Who am I to not love back whom loves me?
Then what, what then?
Then naturally if it's "me" you  love
I'm not me
But someone else

I really enjoyed reading your work tonight. One thing I appreciate is how Your last two lines mimic your first two lines!
