I AM ME

Sun, 02/23/2014 - 23:18 -- Dicey

What do you see when you look at me?

A girl, a child, a little soul wrapped in uncertainty

I seem so young

Naive

To the outside

 

But if you knew me?

I'm a woman, a warrior, an old soul wrapped in morality

I seem older than I am young

Wise

To me

 

But the world what does it see?

A female, a teen, a ball of confusion wrapped in chaos

I seem only half grown

Learning

To the world

 

But we are what?

What you see

What I see

What the world sees

What makes me?

 

I am 

That is it I simply am

I am a woman who is learning 

To bind old school rules with new young pursuits

I know where I stand 

As chaos fills my vision

I am

 

I am 

Me 

Mine

Only what I see

Because at the end of the day 

You, Them

They don't matter because 

I am ME
