I Am

I Am

A Poem by MIngram

I want to be somebody new

Somebody -just like you

So every time that we greet,

I know it’s me you want to see

 

I want to be somebody new

Somebody perfect, just like you

So as I gaze into your eyes

I’ll know or not if it’s all a lie

 

I want to be somebody new

Anyone you want me to

For if I have your hand in mine

I don’t mind living in disguise

 

I want to be somebody new

But now I know it is not like you

For, if I had acted on my own

I wouldn’t be here all alone

 

I don’t want to be somebody new

I just want to be with you

And beneath your deep brown eyes

Lies all of my endless lies

 

Because no matter how hard I try

I just can’t seem to make it by

Knowing that you’ll never see

That I was you, and you were me
