I Am A Human

I am a human,

a walking sack of guts with too much emotion,

and a strong devotion

to things that don’t really matter.

I unknowingly make my life harder

by my hating the people I love.

And when I get stuck in the mud,

those people are always there to drag me out.

I am learner

who makes mistakes.

But from failure,

a lot I can take.

I go through phases

that change like the moon.

Did I forget to mention,

I eat too much food.

I complain,

go insane,

fight my trials,

but in the end,

I can always find my smile.

I am song

who has no tune.

To my parents,

I am a typhoon.

I wish I had more time,

to read, write, and fly a kite.

I want to sleep all day,

but at night I am ready to play

I have a lot of things to do and say

but I always end up hiding them away.

I seek to be different

like a fish going up a current.

But here I am now,

a human comparing myself to a fish,

so that you can understand

a little of who I am.
