To be me

To be a bee, flying parki free

To be a tree, letting the bee come to thee
To be thee, living a life care free
To be me, to careless see

To pay a fee, is to live in the sea
To be given a key, unlocking what’s me
Please let me be, more or less than thee
Bless me, with nothing but tea

To be a kid, and want nothing of me
To be rid, of all that is hid
To lift the lid, so we can bid
On a big life, with no trace of id

To live a future, is a wingless will
To be present, is a present skill
To be past, is living all still
To be anywhere, means paying the bill

Nothing is free, except you and me

To settle for more, is an unpaid whore

To live without love, is scraping a sore

To live with love, is a touch you adore

Pain is worse, if you are cursed

To be bound in chains, until you durst

Do more than you will, then you fill

Your whole life, with all but ill
