When I Am Not Me

Just lines to be read
Lifted from a page
It's then I am free

It's then I can be 
Anyone, anybody
Or just not me

Self concious, aware
Let mellow to bare
What conjures below
Rises to the air

A place in make believe 
A place to become...
To be what u want it to be....

'Let mellow to bare/What conjures below/Rises in the air' -- Hauntingly beautiful lines, entering sublime territory. I'm a fan.
