IF I Were You and You Were Me

by Dadfire — Read all 70 poems by Dadfire

Examining not only walking in the other person's shoes for a time but the you being born in his place perhaps.

If I Were You and You Were Me

if I were you and you were me
I wonder then who we would be
could I be you and you be me
just think upon this fantasy

if I were you and you were me
I wonder then who we would be
would each our world then still be seen
would each our world then cease to be

if I were you and you were me
I wonder then who we would be
would I perhaps then climb a tree
would you down below just laugh at me

if I were you and you were me
I wonder then who we would be
would then to fortunes you attain
would I be shackled, led away

if I were you and you were me
I wonder then who we would be
would we be the dearest friends
or scattered far by ocean winds

if I were you and you were me
I wonder then who we would be
but I think to be the very best
is just be you and no one else

but still I often wonder though
could I be you and you be me
and who the other me would be
if I were you and you were me

I do not know if you would like to be me. I see so much tragedy each day. Maybe I would rather be you and be able to write like you do.

Trading places. An interesting concept with more questions than answers. One thing is certain. If you were me at a young age, you'd climb every tree in sight! ;-)

Answer: you would be in Doha since that is where I live. An interesting concept, Daniel, that I thoroughly enjoyed. Implausible, but fun. John
