Creative I Am


Creative I Am
 
What am I when limited to a single word?
 
Who am I when limited to a single adjective? 
 
Where do I belong when I feel so lost?
 
Who am I? 
 
I am creative.
 
I am able to become more than one word beneath creativity. 
 
Held within the confines of one word,
 
I can still find my freedom to be more than just that word.
 
What lies within creativity?
 
Me.
 
I am intelligent. I am advanced.
 
I am skillful. I am protective.
 
I am lost, all while I am found.
 
I am creative.
 
Intelligent when it comes to finding my way around the words that reside in the depths of the world.
 
Advanced when it comes to my product of thought.
 
Skillful when it comes to learning new things.
 
Protective when it comes to defending my mind.
 
Lost when I am in my own landscape.
 
All while found, since it is my creation.
 
So ask me again what I am.
I will not be someone stuck within the confines of one word,
 
one definition.
 
I am many things hidden within one word.
 
Creative.
 
I am creative.
