A Mile In Your Shoes

In Poems.

If I walked a mile in your shoes
I wonder what I'd see.
If I walked a mile in your shoes
I wonder who I'd be
Would I be a lawyer?
Would I enforce the law?
Would I say "open wide"
Just to poke and prod?
Could I travel the world?
Would it be okay?
Could I see the things you see
Each and every day?
Would it matter to you
If I never showed my face?
Could I always be your friend
Even if I was disgraced?
If I walked a mile in your shoes
I wish I knew what I could see.
If  I walked a mile in your shoes
I hope it would help me find me.
