Who Am I?
Hi my name is Frances
I am Puerto Rican, although anyone who doesn't know me
would argue that I am half black and something else,
I am a teenage girl in my own words through thought
while trapped in the words of others
those words that create a four wall barrier from my own thoughts at times
I spend alot of time inside four very reflective walls
Walls that claim to know me better than I could ever know myself
The very same walls made up of ignorance and insecurities
the ones that see only skin deep and allow that glimpse of sight perceive
the walls that tell lies I believe
So ask me "Who are you?" and I'll answer...
Hi my name is Frances, to you
I am whoever you perceive me to be
Honestly I don't think anyone really knows who they are
Everyday we are introduced to another perception, another version of ourselves
Who am I?
Well, some say I am the spanish girl that never talked in class
Others would say the girl who dreams and allows herself to see the world for all it is
Some would even say I'm just another stuck up, arrogant bitch who thinks she knows it all
But, I say I guess I am all of the above and so much more that is yet to be discovered.
