My World


Dear World,

I am the same yet different

I am strong although weak

I am whitty and humorless

I am lighthearted and at the same time serious

I am scared and yet courageous

I am bold while being timid

I am energetic but so tired

I am ready and yet unsure

I am cute but feel ugly

Am I enough? 

Can you deal with the lack of being tough?

Only you know the persistent insecurity

Can I suceed as a minority?  

I need help so I can be ....my world.
