Of subtle eccentricities

 

I am a well

of subtle eccentricities,

a spring of mild irregularities,

a reservoir

of imperfect peculiarities,

a stream of

a million and one fantasies.

Each droplet contains

a different blend,

a cocktail of my inner self,

a mixture of who I am

and where I will one day be.

 

I am a vortex of imagination,

a cyclone of self-destruction,

a whirlpool of love.

When it feels hard to cope,

I am the downpour of song,

a storm surge of devastation,

a torrent of devotion,

a sprinkling of emotion,

a rainfall of discretion

and a sunrise of hope.

I am a multitude of things

some conflicting,

all make me uniquely me.

 

Sometimes

the blend is wrong,

sometimes my tongue

becomes tied.

I have history inside,

a story to share

about how I got from there

and winded up here. I have tears

that have become rivers on my face,

I have scars that can never be erased.

I have memories

that bring me out in sweats,

I have fear

and it never let's me forget

 

But I am strong,

I have fought hard and long,

I fell so far and kept falling

but I climbed higher

than I had begun.

I nearly died more

than a few times

and was reborn

when truth found me

begging on the ground.

I lived a lie and found

the truth in another calling.

 

I won't say that my irregularities

don’t sometimes get to me,

or that its easy

to get to know the real me,

I am still learning to be

who I am supposed to be.

I still hide away sometimes

in my own reality,

but each day I take another stride

into the world that gave birth to me.
