Because I Have You

Why can't I be you?
You have someone who loves you—
me. I'm passionate about you
and jealous, too,
because you have me,
a person who wants
you
desperately.
So why can't I be you
and be longed for
by someone
who loves you
like me?

That's because I have you,
and to love you is to be with you
in my dreams.
I need not to be jealous of you just
because you have me
because I have you—you
to love in secret, you
to be with in my dreams, and you
to dream of in my sleep.
I have you to hold
in my heart. I do not need
to be you because I'm in love
with you. Because I'm in love
with you, we are
never apart.
