I Am a Paradox
I am a good old-fashioned girl.
I knit, bake, sew, and crochet.
My habits may seem backwards,
But life is much simpler that way.
I am
Modern.
I take
Pride
In the way
My fingers
Fly
On the keyboard
And how
In-the-know
I am
About
New scientific
Discoveries.
I am gentle: sweet and loving.
My voice and touch are soft.
I care for children and the sick
And soothe the hurt and lost.
I am
Tough.
I will never
Give up
Or
Back down.
I can push
Myself
To the
Limit.
I am
An athlete
And I will
Win.
I am humble and unassuming.
You won’t hear me brag.
I don’t think I’m better than anyone else,
And I’m quite content to go last.
I am
Confident.
I know
I can do
Anything
If I set
My mind to it.
I don’t doubt
That I can
Do well
At anything.
Just give me
A shot
And you’ll see.
I am quiet, always listening.
I watch with a quiet smile.
Your opinions and thoughts intrigue me,
So I may not speak for a while.
I am
A leader.
I will
Take control
And direct
So that
Things get
Accomplished.
I am
Not afraid
To speak to
Hundreds
About what
Really matters.
I am sensitive with a tender heart.
Your pain is always mine.
I love deeply, so my heart will bleed
For all who face troubled times.
I am
Stoic.
I can
Look at
The world
And see
Its darkest places
And I will never
Despair.
While others
Lament,
I will say,
“Let’s go.
Time to fix this.”
I am an artist with a sense of whimsy.
The world is a poem, a song.
I like to think in an abstract way
And daydream all day long.
I am
Practical.
I don’t
Do things for
No reason.
I like
Logical
Solutions.
I am
Calculating
In all
Decisions.
Stats and facts
Are my friends.
I am a child at heart.
I enjoy the little things.
I’m content in all situations,
Just hearing the birds that sing.
I am
Ambitious.
I am
Never content
To stay
Stagnant.
I am
Always
Reaching higher,
Achieving
More.
I will
Take on
The world.
I am an intellectual;
I like to sit and ponder.
I study all the subjects;
Among the shelves, I love to wander.
I am
Action-oriented.
I don't want
To sit
And think
About
Things
That need
Doing.
I want
To go out
And do them.
I want
Results.
I am a simple girl of faith.
I accept things like a child.
I obey the Lord unquestioningly
With love unassuming and mild.
I am
A person
Of reason.
I pursue
Philosophy,
Science,
History,
And
Logic
To confirm
What I
Believe
To be
True.
I am a paradox,
A mix
Of
Contradictions.
Some might say I’m impossible,
But
I’d say
I’m just
Human.
