The Real Me

The real me 
Reads like a book
Cover to cover
Transparent and true
Emotionally clever
Perceptive and patient
Thinks deep as the sea
Though far from perfect
Wears her heart on her sleeve
Perseveres in faith
Loves without measure
Cares with compassion 
Lives life with intention
Encourages growth and healing 
Importance of connection 
Shes a rare gem, indeed
There's no other version
