You

Subject: BS: You (lyrics for peace)
From: Donuel

You
You who are the flipside of me
You who are only sometimes
who I need you to be

You who knows freedom isn't free
for the invaders and invaded
You who could be me
and together its we

You who say to yourself
I've got to be me
but if you were
you would set off to sea

You who would not be who we
wanted you to be
You who could give the world
something new to see

You who like Picasso or Michelangelo
turned their back on family
You who would break your back
or not lift a finger for me

You who know an idea
changes life
as we know it.
with a book a song a kiss.

You who both laugh and cry
both shout and hide from love
You who over time could look up
to me from above

You who have no need to help me
You who need me for you to be free
You who are about to open a door to things
you have heard before

You are about to be free
once you want it for me

Why call this BS?

I'd like to see this up above, Donuel, where others are more likely to read it.

Much better! Thank you to the kind one who moved Donuel's poem to its proper place. Thanks to Donuel for posting it for us to read.

This is not about you,but is about I and was taught to me in the 2nd grade

I had a little tea party
This afternoon at three
I invited everyone I knew
I myself and me

It was I who ate the sandwiches
And it was I who drank the tea
It was also I who ate the pie
And passed the cake to me
