Don’t tell me who I am


(To Lenore)

Tell me what to do now, and how to do it. Help me understand things I always found quite difficult. How should I behave to be better? What does this world expects from me? How can I do you good? Give me a hand, because I need to get along in public. Show me the way home, and what should I go home to. Who’s there? Explain me what love is and how can I reach it. And if I do how can I know it, and what to do from that moment on.
What should I do? How can I do it? What for? Teach me who I am and why and what for and why that way and not some other... Hold my hand. Get to know me. Believe in me and make me understand why you do. Be here. Don’t give up. Maybe I can’t do it on my own.
