Default I'm Just Me

I’m just me
with all my faults
but in the psychiatric ward
they want me to be
someone else,
more “normal”.

Dammit, I’m ME,
not an actor.
Be this, be that,
can I just
be ME?
I don’t want to dress-up
I want to wear my own
mental clothes.
I want to be just me
I want to cry.
That’s just being me.
I’m confused:
“Be yourself -
but don’t cry”
Don’t do this
don’t do that . . .
I want to be me
- I want a hug.
they don’t do crying,
they don’t do hugs.
Damn the lot of them:
I’m going to stay
as I am;
I’m going to be ME
