I Am

by jazmin.almeida.5

I am quiet

I am small

The storm in me wages a riot

 

I am a wanderer

I am a believer

Constantly a wonderer

 

I am eighteen

I am young

Yet caught somewhere in between

 

I am depressed

I am scared

Underestimated at best

 

I am a weeper

I am conscious of my solitude

But I assure you I am a keeper

 

I am a writer

I am a friend

And an innate fighter

 

I am a creator

I am the one holding the pencil

The silent debator

 

I am what I can be

I am here to inscribe these words

Unapologetically me

What else should people know about me? Wellllll...... I first started writing when I was 5 years old. I initially wrote short stories for every holiday. The older I got, the longer my stories were as well. A few years ago, I branched out to my current passion: poetry. Now I write poetry more than anything else and use it to vent pretty much every emotion. I never miss a chance to thank the man upstairs for the gift of words. :)
