Is This The Real Reed? Poem by Reed Dietiker

I'll never need to lie

Im just digging you a hole and making you cry

Why would I become that guy?

For I shall bow my head and say goodbye

I'll never stand to be that man

For I shall swing with the fan

I ask myself ' is this truly me? '

Is This The Real Reed?

Who am I in your eyes?

Am I the reason for your whys?

Am I the unwanted?

Am I anything to you?

Am I the shadow in the dark?

...Or am I the lightnining spark?

Im the problem, its nothing new

Im the problem, you know its true
