Who Am I


I am deceptively simple and easily "put together".

As soon as we would meet you could probably see

that I am layer after layer deep

my soul seeming so old

my personality is continously happy

 

I am not lke many where I am the best at something

but i am simply in between at all things

The top was not a place made with me in mind

but whatever i put my mind to I can do

I know that all I want will be done

because as long as as its my best

ill see myself as the top gun.

 

I am greedy in hope and generousity

just praying and waiting for that day,

the day when we all care about each others well being

where I can be truthfully equal with every human being

whereevery kid has a fighting chance at life and liberty

which will turn into so many open oppertunities

 

You asked me who am I

I am telling you greedy

I mean look at me

I could'nt even write a few lines only involving me

You asked me who am I

I am telling youdeceptively simple

because all women arent as complicated as this society makes us seem.

You asked me

and I am saying desperately hopeful for happiness, success, and oppertunity.
