I Am Me

Why am I the exception to every rule?

You can't look, but I can

You can't touch, but I can

You can't kiss, but I can

You can't miss, but I can

You can't hurt, but I can

You can't love, but I can

You can't worry, but I can

You can't die, but I can

I look

I touch

I kiss

I miss

I hurt

I love

I worry

I die...

So do you

In the end am I that different from you?

Do I expect different things from others?

I want respect

I am human

I am me
