I

Who am I if not you?

What smile would I wear if not yours,

What name would I bear if you had not said it so,

Which questions would I ask if not for your answering,

Which colors would I crave?

Where would I find myself on a Sunday morning,

On a Friday night?

 

Who am I if not you?

Whose muse would I weave the world into,

What foods would be as filling,

Which dates could I recall?

 

Without you, I would simply be

The only version,

Void of me.

    Four corners set each way, 
    And I still sit in the box.

    Right could win me, 
    Front or back could block. 
    I could become a famous tool, 
    Or infamously triumph,
