Anyone but Me
Could I have been a doctor,
Could I have been a multi-millionaire,
Could I have been an astronaut,
Could I have been an artist,
Could I have been anyone but me?
Would it matter if I was working in defence,
Would it matter if I was a great chef,
Would it matter if I were a social worker,
Would it make me a better person,
Could I be anyone but me?
Could I have rather danced all day,
Could I have rather given speeches,
Could I have rather done yoga for a living,
Could I be anyone but me?
The thought makes me crazy,
That sometimes I don’t want to be me.
Is there anyone who thinks the same,
Who want to change their being, change their name.
But every time I so fall in love with me,
I don’t want to be anyone but me.
