What Am I?

I am story, Unwritten, Unpredictable, And taking unexpected twists and turns in copious directions. I can be anything––ambiguous, dark, enigmatic, complex or blithe, loving, gregarious and simple. I stand alone, yet I am strong. I am multifaceted, I exhibit many different colors. I am beauty, in essence, whether concealed or revealed. Its pages unfold my feelings, my thoughts, my life. The words spell out my destiny. I am poetry and song, Ever-changing and elusively emotional. The quill is my passion, my flare, my skills, my weapon with which I wield to write my story in undaunted, unrestricted, unique perfection, Like a masterful artist painting a painting though she may have to start over multiple times to correct her mistakes. My life is a candle, slowly but surely burning, yet flickering in the wind. It lights the way to my story, It is a guide from within. I am a writer, unique from any other, but fall prey to writer’s block; I can get into predicaments and rough spots along the way. I am what I am, Unlike any other.
