No Imposter, I - For Std Contest 138

No Imposter, I

Should I once ignore your smile
Call the undertaker
For I be dead unless I be
Imposter fraud or faker

Yet should I be, blind to thee
Even should a fraud I be
Interloper still would see
The beauty that resides in thee

Never shall I stay your kiss
Nor from your hug extract
Nor fail to stroke your flaxen strands
Never shall do that

Should we walk with hands unheld
Call the lawmen in
Tis not I you walk beside
But someone in my skin

Never shall I aim to roam
Nor draw another's eye
Change not I, lest I die
No Imposter, I
