Uppercase I

I am

Prepared for the future

and Ready

and Confident

in my abilities

 

I am

OK

with failing

every now and then

because I

can learn from it

and move on

 

Upper-case Me

has been missing

so

lower-case me filled in

 

i am

small

and hidden

under a pile

of books

and movies

and television

 

i am

lost

in a landfill

of school

and work

and responsibilities

 

i am still trying

to reclaim

my Uppercase-ness

because

I will know what to do

since i do not.

 

i am leaving.

I am coming.  

 

Watch out.

here

I

am.
