Like Me - Poem

I can’t say that I loved you

Can only say I cared

You didn’t know that I’m the type

It’s best to come prepared

So if I say I miss you
And that I want you back

I’m telling you all sorts of lies

‘Cause you’re not what I lack

It’s always been about me

I’m sure you’ll roll your eyes

But all I did was play a part

The master of disguise

The truth of what you did

Was let me act it out

And we were just the characters

I’m sure you’ve found that out

It comes down to my heart

I want to know me best

I’m sorry that I’ve been misread

You’re just like all the rest

But this is what I want

A cycle on repeat

Of getting you to fall for me

And underneath the sheets

It’s not that I’m a bitch

Or evil in my ways

But I’m a growing artist

Our love is just the stage

Now you will find it hard

To love again, I know

But you will get another girl

And try to let this go

She’ll love and appease you

And she will make you see

That even though she’ll please you

There’s no one else like me
