Songs of Myself by Amy Shannon

I only know how to be

myself

I can only be me


I only feel inside

my heart

And yet, its what I hide


I only think of dreams

all the time

And it flows like rough streams


I only see what I see

inside myself

And see myself as me


I can only be

many to all

and all to many


I can only live

life as myself

To have faith and believe


I can only give my soul

to myself

and let it grow old


I only know how to be

myself

I can only be me


To thine ownself

be true,

be true to myself
