You and Me

October 13, 2008
By Anonymous

You are you.
I am me.
Two people who will never be.
As much as I wish,
As much as I pray,
I know there is no possible way.
You have your life,
I have mine,
Between them is an un-crossable line.
You live under the camera's lens,
I live for memories with my friends.
Your face is sprayed across magazines,
That I can only read enviously.
Our paths may cross eventually, but it wouldn't be for long.
It might just be a quick glance,
Or maybe a simple song.
But no matter what ends up happening,
You are you.
And I am me.
Two people who will never be.

The author's comments:
Yes, this poem is based off of someone. It's my favorite singer; David Cook. (Yes, from American Idol) He's been a big part of my life since I first saw him on TV in January of 2008. I couldn't really describe my feelings for him until I sat down one day and wrote a poem. That poem left me emotionally drained for weeks and I did eventually give it to him. I recently wrote You and Me; this was after I realized how far he has come. Writing is the only way I can really describe how much he really means to me. So, enjoy :]
