Can I have me back, please?
Thief of my life
Can you set her free, for me?
What you have given me back, so far
Bears no resemblance to the glowing, happy girl you stole away.
I admit, the resemblance is there,
But what's this desperation in her eyes
And the dark, dark circles underneath?
Where's their laugh and sparkle?
This can't be my me
Can I have her back?
Or, if this imposter is a part
Of what I was, then
Can I have the rest?
Can I have back
Calm contentment
Eyes wide shut
And the most important part that was your friend?
