My Plea

I am not you- but you will not give me a chance, will not let me be ME. If I were you- but you know I am not you, yet,you will not let me be ME. You meddle,interfere in my affairs As if they were yours,and you were me. You are unfair,unwise,foolish to think That I can be you, Talk,act and think like you. God made me me, He made you you, For God's sake, Let me be ME.
