This Is Me


In a funhouse, I stare in awe at my reflection, Wishing I could live in a penthouse. My life, my perspective, my bias keep me going in the right direction. Imperfection, That is I. Dreamer of change And witness to ignorance. For it is I, Who will preach it with conviction The truths of our affliction Upon our existence. Optimistic, That is I, Who drives many ballistic, With high hopes of leaving my depiction Of true perfection As utterly introspective. This is me And what I see And one day hope to be.
