A Glimpse
Never will I have a flawless body
Or be a beauty queen
I am just who I am
What you get is what you've seen
I eat when I am bored
I get jealous as easily as hell
If you ask me to dispense my secrets
I might not be quick to tell
I am sensitive beyond measure
Even though, I keep plenty in
I conceal most of my anger
I'm not the devil but I do sin
Sometimes I get neglectful
I know how to make a mess
But if you ask me to be great
I'll give you nothing less
I hate to be alone
Nightmares get me when awake
Sometimes making it through the day alive
Is more than I can take
I am deeply serious
Yet, I do know how to have fun
I'll procrastinate like crazy
If important, I'll get it done
I believe in God and heaven
I've played with death multitude times
I hide behind numberless masks
Caught in a play without the lines
I love to think of you
A calm spirit in a chaotic universe
My life has changed within meeting you
My heart beats to a broken verse
I don't handle rejection
Even if it is real or in my head
I am beyond gullible then you can imagine
Many lies I have been feed
I have the worst mood swings
I change in the blink of an eye
One moment I am happy, the next sad
I hate it when I can't cry
My strongest fear is abandonment
Therefore, when people get close, I push them away
All I ask is for you to have patience
The light will come within the day
I will always give 100%
It is the best that I can do
In life as well as my heart
I am a woman who loves you
