If I Were You
By Jesi Scott
If I were you
If you were me
Perhaps you’d see
Perhaps you’d be
The one I’d crave
The one to save
Save my life
Save my world
World in my heart
World torn apart
Apart from this
Apart and dismissed
Dismissed from here
Dismissed to disappear
Disappear from life
Disappear from view
View my hurt
View my pain
Pain everlasting
Pain forecasting
Forecasting to amend
Forecasting the end
End the history
End my misery
Misery of us
Misery in exodus
Exodus of the end
Exodus to begin
Begin again
Begin and feign
Feign these feelings
Feign these meanings
Meanings that lie
Meanings that cry
Cry a river
Cry and deliver
Deliver the package
Deliver the message
Message left behind
Message that’s over
Over and out
Over and without
Without a word
Without a doubt
Doubt you
Doubt me
Me in truth
Me so obvious
Obvious
Truth.
* Day 13: to express to someone your point of view using a Blitz poem, not my favorite form. I decided to put more thought and interest in it by making it rhyme as much as I could and to try and make it a little more challenging.
