push me pull me
is that written on my forehead
permanent ink
tattoo beneath skin
I
am
only
one person
I
can
only
do so much
why is it that everyone
wants a piece of me
for their own self
for what they think I am
what they want me to be
wished I was
I’m not
any of it
who am I
I’d really like to know
really
I can dance to any song
watch closely you’ll see
the missed steps
I
fake
it
all Talk if you will
and right here right now
I just want to crawl in a hole
a dark quiet place
and
be
left alone
I don’t want to dance for you
or anyone else
not even for me
I
am
not
what you think I am
what perhaps I have led you to believe
I am just
me
nothing special
nothing really worth all that much
no magic
no endearing or enduring qualities of any kind
just me
and
I’m tired
of dancing

bye
