Inner Self

Allow me to tantalize you with a glimpse of my inner self.
Artistic in nature, wordy or just a line drawing of beauty,
that captures my core of thought.
Independent to some extent; my mind continually wonders and 
wanders aimlessly about, searching viscerally for solace of 
tranquility/harmony in a life that has been full of uncertainty.
A romantic of phrases drenching a heart of old wounds, 
healing and consoling with a heavy imagination.
I want desperately to live in a place of concordance, if just for a day.  
Wrap my love in confetti and shower the earth with exuberant laughter
and faith in itself.
I am a dreamer of hopefulness in reality, filling my memoirs with 
profound conceptions of truth, honesty, and integrity in a world of
misconceptions, completely disregarding turmoil.
