Poem by Akosua Dufia Boakye
But How Can I Be Me?
I am not who I want to be
The only person in my way is me
The lives of the ‘amour propre’ I see
But how can I be me?
I don’t want to die an arm candy
I really want to be happy
Happiness without being sappy
But how can I be me?
But how can I be me?
Mama said: Baby be steady!
I really want to be me
But, I truly cannot find me
