Sweet Contradictions

I'm a little too much, or at times not quite enough, I'm too sensitive, too distracted or at times just too tough. I'm too in my head, or say hurtful words without thought, I'm super focused on the ball, and then suddenly, energy's at nought. I either notice it all, or see very little I can be softly spoken or when annoyed can sound brittle Without words my face tells you all you need to know, but I promise you this, I really don't mean it to show. I'm either full of self confidence or fueled by self doubt, I know it's hard to understand when I still haven't figured it out. My life is such a sweet contradiction you see, So hard to live this modern life, when I'm not sure who to be. I do have some great traits though I swear, I am creative, loving and have crazy ideas out of nowhere, I love with all my being and care so deeply, That my head and my heart are at war so uniquely. My head says act how society wants you to be, My heart screams back, that's just simply not me! So please try not to judge, when I'm just trying to find me. I'm simply on a journey, to navigate life with that thing called ADHD
