To Be You

We have done this before
This living that we do now.
Try, try, try again.
If I come back
I want to be you.
I can see what you're doing
and I could do it better.
Let me come back as you
And I'll be kind for sure.
I'll let my heart out
and mean it when I
speak to those I care for.
I know you'd love to be
A better you than you are.
I could make you someone
who listens to instinct.
You could be someone
Who is more peaceful,
Someone more loving.
Sure of yourself and of
The choices you make.
I'll be sure to be nicer
To your body and soul.
I'll even make sadness
A fleeting thing.
If you let me be you
I know I can make you
Into some one you could
Love.
