How does it feel to be me I was asked today,
I can honestly say I didn't know how to reply,
Should I say grateful to be alive,
Glad to be one of the lucky ones free from poverty and disease?
Or should I explain my worries,
And seem like a selfish brat?
If someone asked you,
What would you say?
Of all the horrid things that go on these days,
The majority of the time I am isolated from those,
My parents protect me- what right have i got to turn round and say i hate them?
My friends are there for me- What gives me the right to complain when they talk behind my back?
The choice is to great,
And the consequences too high,
I have a wonderful life,
I shall reply,
Filled with fun, laughter and happiness,
And ill put the truth in a box that can never be opened.
