What Would I Be

What would I be like if I wasn’t really me

Would I be loud, would I start trouble?

Who would I be?

Going around making fun of people,

The way they dress, talk, look, and think?

I would like to think that I would be better,

Better than what I’m supposed to be.

But how?

Studying, asking questions, doing work?

But that’s who I am right now,

So would I be any different?

What would I be like if I never talk to people?

Who would I go to, would I go crazy?

Would I be considered anti-social?

Staring out into the distance

Because I got no one there for me.

But that’s not me

I laugh, talk, sing, and dance with my friends and family.

Acting crazy without a care in the world,

Like we’re some kids in a jungle jim

Running around, tagging each other until our mothers call for us.

Who would I be?

What would I be?

How would I be?

Who would I be if I wasn’t really me?

I’ll still be only me, there’s nobody else I could be.
