Here lies the need to balance well-said phrases on how I see myself, and the need to avoid vain egotistic bullshit. Perhaps I should find a quote that sums me up in a few words, and yet my pride refuses to allow someone else who doesn't know me to describe me, even if I somewhat agree to what they have said. Add to that the fact that I hate the idea of stealing another's work. You could find a hundred quotes, each talking about something new and each would represent me in some way. Contradictions and paradoxes were meant to live inside me. I'm a poet, much to the discontent of many. I speak in stanzas and rhyme when I am clear, I speak in broken silent sentences when I can't decide what to say first. I'm silent and I speak too much, I show all I am while hiding all I am. I am both conscious and unconscious of what I say and do. I am both silent and impossible to keep quiet. I am simply me. A human being, flesh and bone, wishing I was immortal, yet sometimes grateful that I will not live forever. A person with hopes, dreams, aspirations, fears, emotions, and thoughts that keep me up at night. I'm like everyone, and like no one. I'm still simply me. ♥
