You Are You, I Am Me

You are you, I am me I wonder If I am seen I hear Life passing into the night,  like a river passes into the sea I see That certain cats think, iam a lying fake that only think of me. I want To Erase and forget  what you said to me today. You are you, I am me. I pretend That im happy,  when I'm really not okay. I feel Lost and shipwrecked,   love is far away. I touch You awkwardly. I worry If i will be good enough today. I cry Because you dont believe a word I say. You are you, I am me. I understand I dont think of you, my word always come out carelessly I say How did things become this way? I dream That i will awaken from this reality. I try, And you lash out unexpectedly I hope To find a way out of this insanity You are you, and I am  me.
