Calmly and Gently,

Sure and Confident,

Happy and Together

on the outside

Shaky and Scared

Unsure and Questioning

Never to know

On the inside

The person I want to be

is like a dream

I can be me

or I can be them

When I am me

I am compared to them

When I am them,

I am compared to me

I can only be one of them

I am me

They are them
