Me
by Joan SerratelliI cannot be
anyone else
other then
who I am
I cannot do
what you want
me to do
or act
the way you want me
to act
I cannot
change the way
I feel
no matter how hard
I try
I can
only be me
I make no apology
I try
to be the best person
I can be
and not get lost
trying to be
someone I cannot be 06/10/2006 Posted on 06/10/2006

Suggestion, maybe change the "can's" and "cannots" to "will's" and "will not's" to make it a bit stronger. Take or leave - just an idea.
