The Me I Used to Be (July 4, 2022)

Doe eyed and misunderstood

The only thing I wanted was a best friend

No need to pick and choose I will take what I can get

No wonder I can’t relate

Then there were “others,” not just a sister or cousin

Stitched away at my jeans to be me, masked as them

When will the time come I get to be the one?

Singing and dancing my way through life

since the day I was born

Always to my own tune, lyrics included

Never again the me I used to be

Curly hair and attitude

The only thing I needed was a manual

No I don’t need to be included,

No really just leave me alone

Then there were “outsiders,” free thinking radicals

Stitched away at my jacket, to show them all without saying a word

When will the time come I get to be one?

Singing and dancing my way through life

since the day I was born

Always to my own tune, lyrics included

Never again the me I used to be

I finally got my shot, adulting 101

The only thing I wanted was a forever partner

drug addiction, homelessness, toxic relationships

No I didn’t find it there

No not even a little bit

Then came my own army man, fight the good fight everyone else abandons

My time has finally come, to be the one.

Never again the me I used to be

Writing and growing my forever forward

barefoot and broken never fet so good

Happy as can be as the me I was meant to be

barefoot and broken never felt so good

Happy as can be as the me I was meant to be
