You but Me
Yes i see what You mean
what You see in me
the qualities so similar to Your own
You see yourself, hidden in the depths of my soul
You see the mistakes You made about to surface
and so You try to scream them into me
without making it seem like You are not letting me learn for myself
I see that You are trying to fix your mistakes through leading me for the perfect life you imagined for Yourself
but I am not You, I am Me
My own person
My own body
My own mind
and My own soul
I may be somewhat like you
but more than that I am first and foremost
Me.
I wish I could tell you more
let you in to see My thoughts
so unlike yours
I know you wish to make Me happy
but I am too independantand much too stubborn to allow Myself to be led like cattle
I may be weak now but I will learn
with or without you to guid Me
So like it or not I am more closed to you than you wish
but I will not open My heart
not with words like a whip that try and force Me into someone elses life or fantasy
I will open when I want to
I will reach when my hands are shook loose
I respect you too much to openly disobey
but still I cannot obey what I think you are forcing upon me
I respect you and I love you
but still I can never be you
I can never walk the same path you led
I can never jump into your thoughts and become the you you want yourself to be
because I am not you
I am Me.
