Poem 1; Am I Me?
Am I me?
A question I've asked
For way too long
I used to know myself
I was everything
any girl wanted to be
I was the role model
I can't say
it brought me down
but Julie
brought me
somewhere else
I was used
to being around strange people,
around anyone
who would listen
I chose these people
as my friends
I'd get tired
of them eventually
some would cling
some would let go
but Julie
she was different
I couldn't describe
it, even if
you asked me
I never got tired
of Julie
She was so smart
so affectionate
so beautiful
so funny
we were inseparable
Julie
Precious Julie
was never mine
but I was hers
I know
she'd say
the same
to me
