See You Again

I don’t know about you, But time actually began to fly by, When I finally was over the fact, That you weren’t around me. I came to look at my life, In a perspective that, We weren’t gonna build, On what we started. And only eighteen months later, We find the opportunity, To catch a glimpse of each other, And spend time together. The cliché stands, You never know what you have, Until it is gone, Or we’re both gone for that matter. I guess I can’t say I had you, But I believe it could have been, If the cards were in our favor, And maybe one day they will be. Allow me to work my magic, And the illusion of hope will follow through, If we both wish for the same thing, It can happen. This could be quite the fairy tale, You play the princess, And I could be the peasant player, And sparks fly and evil to keep us apart. I would climb the wall, Cut through the deadly forest, Slay the dragon, Just to find you again. Oh, what I wouldn’t do, If the chance was right, Or even if the chance was wrong,

No Comparison

Don't compare me, To whomever you search for, That seems to be like me, Because I am not like that person. How would you know, That you're comparison, Has lived the same life as I, And written in the same frame of mind as I? I chose to be who I am, And not to be someone else. If someone uses the same words, Doesn't mean they are me. I never studied literature, In hopes I would carve myself out, From the large block of clay, And the simple tools of perception. No matter who they might be, Or who you might know, Don't spread the light across us both, In the idea that we're alike. I never studied, I probably won't be studied. I read from the famous, But I don't think I will be famous. For that is who I am, Who I choose to be, And how I want to be treated, All I ask, is for you to respect that.
