Define Me

If you met me today, I would be a shadow in the street

Bruised, humble, quiet, broken

If you met me tomorrow, I would be loud and effete

Confident, happy,  thoughtful, spoken

 

Definition is submission to who you are now

As we grow we change, don't question how

Who I am today is not what is around me, it is within me

A circumstance does not change who I am 

Neither does a poetry slam

Definition is created, not born 

Through life it is criticized, critiqued, torn

Who a person is cannot simply be defined

As any poet knows, defintion takes time

 

 

I am still a youth, yearning to explore

Searching my heart, and shutting the door

Still discerning what I believe

Taking chances, learning to grieve

There are so many moments to be a part of

Finding myself is harder than falling in love 

Please guide me on who to be

Because defining myself isn't easy
