We Are Us, Not You And Me

You think I am now yours,
I cannot be myself again.
That I’m all for you.
And yourself for yourself.

How can you be so arrogant?
So sure of yourself?
I am me.
And you are just a part of me. Not me.

I gave you a piece of my heart.
A place just for you.
But not my heart.
No. just a part of it.

Now come to me and hear.
You are mine. A part of me.
I am yours. A part of you.
But I’m not you. You, not me.
