What You Know About Me

This world I reside in is so TYPICAL, Pathetic, sad, yet, COMERCAL. By the thoughts one thinks or the “majority”, they judge an INDIVISUAL! But let me be among the first to say, it’s not what you READ, but what you didn’t READ. It’s not what you HEARD, But what you didn’t HEAR. It’s not what you SAW, but what your didn’t SEE. It’s not what you TOUCH, but that which you never FELT. My poetry is only words, mixed with emotions from SELF. I’m angry, but I’m not MAD! I’m hurt, but I’m not SAD! I do mischief, but I’m not BAD! I have an earthly father, but I have a heavenly DAD! I’m happy, but I’m not GLAD! I’m content, but I’m not SETTLING! I’m lonely, but I’m not ALONE! I reside here, but this is not my HOME! I live life but, life is not my OWN! I’m a man, but I consider my dad a man, so I’m not GROWN! I cry, but I don’t WEAP! I fall, but I do not FAIL! I am arrogant, but I’m still HUMBLE! I lie, but I’m not a LIAR! I love money, but I’m not a money LOVER I live for now, but I’m not IMPATIENT I don’t train to box, I’m a BOXER I don’t learn to fight, I’m a FIGHTER I don’t wait for things to happen, I do THEM! I don’t’ wait for someone to loose, I go WIN! I sin, but I do not go out of my way to be a SINNER! I have intelligence, but I am not the most INTELLEGENT! I’m strong, but I am not the STRONGEST! I do wrong, but I’m not the WRONGEST! I’m good at majority of the things I pursue, but I am not always the BEST! This world I reside in is so typical, pathetic, sad, yet very COMMERCAL! By thoughts one thinks or the “majority” assumes they have the audacity to judge this INDIVISUAL!
