Courtney Young Poet I do not know?

I Am About...

I must say there will be times I cry
There will be times I feel I must  lie
Though  inside I feel nothing
I am about something
I am about all that can be  possessed
I am about the increase , not the decreased
I urn for things I know I cannot be
Enjoying every moment that I can live
Giving out all the love I can give
Yet I get  hurt so easily
Because I give so  freely
Now I try to guard my heart 
From  every conversations' start
Aching for things I cannot say
Being places I cannot stay
Longing  for certainty or death
Wanting more than just my breath
I want to make a difference
To long for my preference
I grow in strength every day 
Learning  to listen to what  you say 
I learn by what I feel not what I hear
So many people act like they care
Yet  so many times I gave them my  trust
That  all has come today  to be  dust
How can I trust  anyone now?
Just  tell me how I could trust  now 
I am about all of this 
I am about a life-long  bliss 
When I am angry I have to shout 
" This is  what I am about !"
