The Nature of Me

I'm like the grass Sometimes I need to be cut down so that I can regrow but not so fast I'm like the sky in clear view Sometimes I'm gray and sometimes I'm blue My words can feel like the wind I can welcome you but at times I can blow you away like a tornado with 100 mph winds My tears resemble the rain drops Drop after drop, I can flood the world, bottom to top I can be like the sun Brighten up your day to add a little fun Then my eyes can glow like the moon in the midnight sky I can be your worst nightmare and have you up all night wondering why I can be cool Like the cool water on a hot, summer day in the swimming pool But make me mad And I can be as hot as the humid on a 108 degree summer desert day or just as bad I can be South Carolina's 2007-2008's winter weather Hot, cold, windy, cool, mild, rainy, and sunny altogether All of this is just the nature of me that wrapped in The skin that I'm in
