Why Can'T I Be Me Poem by Max D. Hornbogen

Why can’t I be me, when I look in a mirror all I really see is myself?
I try to close my eyes and think of something else…but really I am just standing on my own two feet.

Sometimes walking outside helps me relax my mind, but tonight is different.
Just can’t seem to take edge off

So why can’t I be me, all I do is stand on my own two feet…so when I look into that mirror all I can see is only myself staring right back at me.

When daytime comes, I go out driving in my car…yeah I have my music on
The sunglasses are on, now I can see a different view…take a look in my rear view mirrors, now there is a chick walking by and she’s looking real fine from behind.

Sun light Is only part of the day and I intend to see that yellow sun, do some calls on my phone…soon enough it was beer thirty, had some friends over

Now all my problems just went away…when that beer hits my lips it’s going to feel like heaven.

Too many beers just went down, with a couple of friends…now I’m really messed up
Well the limo, just pulled up…I see that their were drinks in this fridge of there’s

So we got to our destination, it was a night to remember, oh yeah we really got messed up.
