Myself or Somebody else?
August 9, 2019
Why do I always fight myself
Preventing myself from being myself
I’m still in my own body
But at the same time I’m somebody else
I may not like me
But I’m still me
But know matter how many times
I must tell myself this
I will always be someone other than myself
