That Is Me

Born chosen,
  in other spheres,
  soon landed
  where nobody wanted ...
  Little sugary I grew up,
  little salty I survived
  to be kind of impish ...
  I'm a fugitive son
  from the sea ... being healthy ...
  Stout escapist
  commitments,
  absent goer
  of cultural events
  intriguing inhabitant
  of society ... but
  even so intending to me
  being a poet, I got here ...
  Neither high nor low
  meantime...
  Neither ugly nor handsome
  however ... I don't pay attention to fashion,
  but I am inside everything ...
  Gone in the years,
without having realized ... yet
  I am faithful wanderer with
  tired feet and body
  sense...
  I never wanted luck,
  be preferred but with
  luck I was always registered ...
  I mix healthy and evil
  accurately ... I'm almost
  pure innocence ... further angel
  than a demon by essence ...
  But imperfect man
  I am still ... I'm sure ...!

You are your own person, in other words personally unique, as God made us all, I like the sum of you, and the honesty that goes with it. Kudos Alkas, Hugs and blessings Jennifer
