Me, Myself and No One Else

i think you should know that i've been me for a long while now and i think you should know that i'll be me again here today, oh so down yea i've been down for while now but i think you should know that i'm trying a little harder to not be me in such a way it offends you, yea i wonder if i could wake up and not worry about a thing take your responsibilities and do away with structure time and all, i envy the luxury i kind of like to think i'd like to be a record player static and bristles is all i'd have to worry about to got out and play and i could be compact or i could be a thumb tact and i could make you smiling happy or i could make you hurt, yea but then i would just be the same and that's just what i want to change i just want to change and be someone somewhere new if i could change you i'd only ask you to help me change my tired thoughts i think you should know that i've been me for a long while now and i think you should know that i'll be me again here today, oh so down yea i've been down for while now "would you if you could"

I see you all found some inspiration while I was not at the Soup this weekend. I enjoyed reading your poetry today and will be back again soon to read more Jerry. May you have a week of good health, joy and sunshine to light up your life. Love, Carol
