Just Like You
Everything I've ever done
Every choice I've made
Each change
Down to the last detail
Since I was able to decide
Every step
Every turn
All my thoughts
My every motivation
Each decision
Each reaction
All of my being
All of my life
Though at times
It became horribly twisted
Ever at the root of it all
At times overpowering
Sometimes feeble
Simple
Pure
All I ever wanted
Was to feel loved
