Why am i not me? This hair isn’t mine These thoughts aren’t mine This face These eyes Arms Stomach Hips But these hands are mine What they make are mine But they don’t connect Why? Why am i not me? I hate ‘me’ but it’s better than this This? What is this? It’s not me. I’m not even sure it’s human Or alive Why am i not me? Why do i feel like a video game character? Or someone from a movie? Why can’t i just be me? Who is ‘me’ Is ‘me’ better than this? I don’t know I don’t know I DON’T KNOW
