Sashi Prabhu Poet Free verse

I Am Me

I am me
Usually normal 
At times boring
At times I pretend..
Pretend to be normal
When its dull and boring
I get back to being normal
I own a mouth
Sometime good and at times bad
But I do great things with it
I know...
If i am not me for myself
Then  who can I be me for
And who will be for me..
If I am not for myself, 
So
My life..my style
My rules, my attitude
All may hurt me
But if i enjoy being me
Then i guess let me be me...
Life has taught me
To be me..

Life's wisdom and life's love
I dangle between
Nothing and everything..
So i keep doing & saying 
What i want...to be me.

Its not about people 
Its about me
Immovable, confident
Insensitive unshakeable
Imprervious.....
Are some words that
Are thrown at me..
Scrub on to my back

I dont wish nor am I am
More than what I am 
I am me..
I am.me in this world 
Full of promises fantasy
Dreams wishes and hope
That will break me 
Or be broken
Then why..should i not be me..
If i am not me for myself
Then who will be for me.....
