Hell4heart in Poetry & Free Verse

I am me

I am so deeply and thoroughly myself

I am so incredibly complicated and so awesomely complex

It’s one of my favorite things I have grown to see inside of myself

And yeah

Without a shred of doubt I know that it is too much for most people

I know that I am too much for most people

Which used to make me so sad

So very sad for the way it felt

To feel so completely separated from the world around me

To feel so completely misunderstood by the people that surrounded me

I grew to acknowledge and accept that people didn’t understand me, and that they probably never would

It’s alright with me because it has to be

I need to start exploring and adoring the parts of myself that MAKE ME this way

That make me so AWESOMELY complex, and messy, and messed up, and crazy

I need to stop trying to shove certain parts of myself away and out of the sight of others, and trying to cover up the parts of me that I’m afraid they won’t like, or that they may reject.

I need to give myself credit where it is deserved, and accept the fact that I am UNDENIABLY human..

and that there HAS be room for error

There HAS to be room for flaw....

I honestly wouldn’t have it any other way.

Because I am brilliantly unique.

And because I am brilliantly me.
