A Total Enigma

I can’t be branded and put into a box I’m a rhyme wrapped within a riddle a complete paradox I won't carry the labels, or walk around with the stigma. I am the great unknown a total enigma I am an incomplete masterpiece, a beautiful disaster I am the once upon a time and the happily ever after I am realism, embedded within a parody I am hesitation and doubt, clothed in certainty. I am cause and effect, the inevitable reaction I am the unattainable that brings complete satisfaction I am an open book, and still a complete mystery. I am a façade, covered in authenticity I am assurance and conviction, facts draped in fiction I am chaotic peace and silent confliction I am the writing on the wall that you try to decode I am a living saga, great legends untold I am a conundrum, a million scattered puzzle pieces I am the hypothesis that obliterates your thesis

DyAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN!!!!!!!!!! I AM amazed by your impeccable flow! I AM fortunate to read the poetry you bestow. I AM really glad I took the time to read this I AM tingling like I just received a kiss. :) and really, I am sure anyone who reads this will be in awe of it's beauty.... 7up and my favorite! I apologize for not responding lately. I've had zero time to be online due to the move my family and I just made to FL from SC. I should be on the Soup more often in the coming days to read and post more poetry (I have written hundreds of poems in the last few weeks but just haven't got the chance to post them).
