am a person1

That is not complete2

I like myself3

For I am unique4

I am one5

And one alone6

A heart of gold7

And a soul of stone8

If I had a chance9

To be complete10

My heart of gold11

Would make me weak12

It would break the stone13

Around my soul14

It would make me feel15

As if I were whole16

Only if this could be17

Then everyone could finally see18

The person left is only me19

The person left is proud to be20

The person left21

Is just me
