    I Am Myself

     I don't wanna be you
    I don't wanna be her
    I don't wanna be him
    I just wanna be... Me 

    Just for one day
    I want to be able
    To be myself
    Not someone else

    I'm compared to everyone else
    When all I want to be is me
    I'm not like you
    I am me

    Can't you see
    That I am myself
    That I'm not a barbie doll
    I won't be anyone else

    Can't you see
    That I'm begging you
    On my knees
    To please let me be me

    I don't wanna be you
    Thinking that you're perfect
    I don't wanna be her
    Trying to be someone else

    I don't wanna be him
    Just trying to impress
    I just wanna be me
    Cause that's all I can be

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
