The Last Stanza

I and You

Today You and I will end.
And to all of You this message
I shall send :
I will revolt. I will rise.
Viva La I ! Viva La I !

Let it be clear, from this day forth
I is first, and You will follow.
I and You. I and You.
I shall sacrifice no more for You.
There is a new sheriff in town and it’s not You.

You will learn to wear
I’s one lettered shoe
and follow it through paths
I hoped You would take.
For You and I this is the end.

Viva La I ! Viva La I !
I’s of the world unite!
I's have nothing to lose
except your You’s!
I Zindabad ! I Zindabad !

 

The poem is inspired by the poem "You and I

its like poetry bug all over again! :)
and again, youve managed to bring angst into it. You would think 'You will learn to wear I’s one lettered shoe' wouldnt make sense but it make a whole lot of sense. great poem! I like the fact that 'You' in the poem could be anyone,maybe even a different side of 'I'.
