Love Me Why
Everyone has something they love about themselves,
anywhere from their hair to how they wear their favorite color.
I have always had such a hard time figuring this question out,
What do I love about myself?
If I was to pick just one thing,
It would have nothing to do with how I look.
It would have no bearing on the job I held,
Even though I am proud as hell.
The one thing that I hold so dear is that
These words came from my pen tonight.
You see my favorite characteristic is I can be free,
I can be free when ever I feel the need.
For when I write I am most at peace.
If I could not write I would not be me.
