I've tried to be everything I'm not,
I've tried to have everything you've got--

I've tried to do it your way,
To do the things you say--

But like you...I'm just not --
I always feel caught.

Locked in a place I don't belong
Singing the tune of a different song--

Looking for the key
To unlock the real me.

Afraid to follow my dreams,
For folly do they seem.

I dream not of the path you want for me
Why can you not see?

   

My girl is a poet!

Talented, eh?

   

aw shucks, thanks sweetie....
