I am the one I no longer know.

"I am, whatever they say I am. If I wasn't, then why would they say I am."

Yeah . . . that's about right.
----------------------------------
I am
the frown upon my face
the hours past, no dry erase.
I am
this deep
dark
complex
comic?
book of hearts on sleeveless pockets
I am
the words I 'itch' to others
wish: take back! those tongueless runners
I am
the silence, I hold my breath
I kick and scream, burn in my chest
from den of doubt
no patience,
racing with my quiet graces
I am
the time I take to ease
the shield that builds
from ache and knees . . .
that used to bow upon my carpet
ask for help
but then, I stopped it
I am
the grip I tightly hold
when things go wrong
I love 2-fold
2 personalities come out to play
the one who cares
the one with rage
I am
this D-scription
I see
Irate I fake the hate at gate
affect me not?
yeah right, untrue
but true like glue
I say to you
---------------
I am
this person
I ask: Who's she?
it makes me wonder
what happened to me?
