___ Individual

I'm such a strange individual,
Sometimes I'll parade with a smile,
Other times stewing and curled into a ball. 

I'm such a wounded individual,
Yearning for love like a neglected child,
With wrinkles of her own. 

I'm such a weird individual, 
Wherever I notice everyone going,
I run from there and am called to isolation. 

I'm such a timeblind individual,
Existing in this world of realities,
Floating inbetween as timezones shift. 

I'm such a contradictory individual,
Intellectual and intuitive but naive,
Timeless and aging simultaneously. 

I'm such a human individual,
Navigating the realms again,
Knowing not how many times she's been here before.
