Emile Pinet Poet Verse

Who Am I

                            I'm a human
        being, and thus, emotional;
      I can be selfish or giving and kind.
        I am optimistic,
  and realistic: traits imbued in our species.
  I am a man of compassion, conscience, and heart;
    struggling with internal conflicts
  that differ from the reality I perceive.


              I'm a poet;
        a wordsmith who forges feelings
      out of experiences and shared truths.
        I am an observer,
  and a participant in this mesmerizing
  journey through life, with hope, love, passion, and desire.
    And I've an inquisitive heart,
  which often leads me to question God and blind faith.
