Me, My and Mine

That pretty much covers me - how about you?
Well, if "me" ever gets to that part "you", what to do?
Actually for "me" people, it's right along here somewhere.
Stuck in the "me" mode, it feels so natural, they can't seem to dare

To change modes for mortal fear of losing everything.
Their insecurity exceeds any other "security blanket thing."
The first actual experience of caring about the other fella
Can come at any stone upon their path... usually unexpected.

When you live your life in such a cocoon it limits your expression.
You never escape to spread your wings and discover the blessings
Of flying free and loving life and sharing the joy with another
Who is, by heaven's definition, your earthly sister or brother.
