I just want to be anyone.. anyone but me.. I would take any pill.. Break every rule.. If I could be free.. Just to be anyone ... anyone but me. How I wish I could be someone.. Anyone but me.. To stop all the guilt you bury me with.. To end this pain .. You love to give.. I would take any pill Break any rule Just to be free.. Just to be anyone.. anyone but me.. If I could only fly.. I would fly so high.. then dive into the sea.. Fill my lungs with water.. Let life burst from me.. Float lifeless... into eternaty Then I could be anyone..but me.. No more doubts, no tears, no guilt.. I would just flow with the tides.. No longer alive.. No one left to blame.. No more foolish games.. Don't bother with a funeral.. Know that I am free.. I am now someone.. Anyone anyone but............... me.

Erica, I agree with Erin, you are a beautiful, unique individual who has had a very rough life. But many like myself had a hard life also, and here we are you and I to tell and write about it and purge it from our system. Bill Murray

Hello, Erica. I've seen you on here before, in the titles, I feel you are You for what you've gone through, and would like to see some iota of hope from you, for without it, I fear for you, and we, as a species, are damned. But, perhaps we've always known that. Dear Soul, you are more than what has happened to you, the awful aching truth is, you make you, you, in the end. Lovely child, do you not have a happy poem inside of you? Please look and find "life", it won't always be easy or painless, but, in a world of billions, it will be Y0U!
