Someone Else
being someone else
getting back to yourself after the act
growing up without plastic shoes
keeping a check on what is going on
wanting so much and looking after those close
the shops change to,
but we change the most
getting back to the you
finding and establishing a role
one that fits you well
being someone else
the book can close itself
when you have finished being somebody else
trying to work out where to go
when you have no map and no idea
all you wear is fear
being someone else or what you should be
is not so clear even if it is you
so when it is all confusion
i will wait till it feels like me
James Garratt – Sunday 1st February 1998
