Deny

It's so easy to
wish
you were someone else.
People are never able to
admit
the who they wish to be.

It's so hard to
believe
some who wants to be you.
People are always able to
hide
the who they wish to be

But as you would
hide
because your who would never
believe
that you would soon
admit
that they are the who,
whom you would
wish

It's been awhile but I've decided to post this one.  No idea why but meh.  Here it is.  It'll probably be awhile before I post again.

    Lovely symmetry. And the last stanza is enigmatic. It forced me to read it three times. I imagine it would do the same to many other readers. and they'll be left puzzling and saying to themselves if I just brought to bear a bit more concentration I'd fathom the meaning I know is there. I liked it.
