What I Could Be

Im a stranger on the sidewalk Im a model in a photo-shoot I am fat I am small I am short I am tall I am no one I am me And this is what Ill always be
You laugh at me You look down on me But maybe soon youll learn to see All that I can be
I am everything I am nothing I am a pauper in the street I am a queen with people knelt down at my feet I am an actress getting a Grammy I am a nurse or a nanny I am all the things I want to be
I am young I am old I am warm I am cold I am anyone that I choose to be I am all the things I want to be
You criticize me You sneer at me But I hope one day youll start to see All that I could be
I am a solitary writer Hiding in my home I am an archeologist Studying an ancient tome I am a teenager Trying to learn where I roam
You never tried to see me You never though of who I could be But Ill go easy on you for it is hard to see What exactly I could be

I like the "in your face" kind of writing here. Strong and powerful. Great piece. Peace to you, Laura |
