So Do I Be

I am a child of the universe The one to have begot, on this earth, her rightful place I am a being made of flesh and blood A being with a soul, with sensitivity as her ruling word I show to the world a side of me that does not really be me I show to the world, a woman, being yet a girl, one so bold Fearless yet frail at the same, strong, detached One dedicated to her duty, one who does yearn to be accepted I show to the world, a girl bent on creativity One who does find her peace only in works, being so literary One who does enjoy only her own company One who does be a loner, as well as a boring entity But then, the one I do really be Does be made of magic and mystery Why, I do believe my real abode does be the skies They do be from where I fell and to where I shall rise I do really be overly sensitive So much that I do show not that I do grieve I hesitate even to forgive Out of fear of being once more, rebuked I do really be made of an open heart Yes, the whole of humankind does be my sweetheart But then, showing my empathy does be useless See, the world itself does have an aim, so senseless I do be still a child inside Yes, in being pampered do I pride For the child in me does yearn still for my carer The one who does be my mother or yet still, my grandmother I do be a complexity for the rest of humanity See, I do live my life fully while claiming to be in love with spirituality Why, of holy verses I know naught But then, for their revival shall I fight I do be a girl who does be high on morals Indeed, I do live as a prudish one Allergic to that which does be immoral Allergic and of course, to evil, never being prone I do be a girl yearning to be appreciated So far, my writings have been to me, my hymns so well accorded Pray, wish I for such to be so still Yes, for only in such do I get a sort of artistic thrill! I do be a girl relishing some good food Why, of the looks of a nice pizza and a glass of wine, have I always admired So much that for me, such does be prized But again, a little dieting would be much needed Pray, the side I show to the world does be only a part of what I do be Should you want to know me Then, you should read all of my poetry Indeed, only in those rhymes do I bare my soul!
