Who I Am

WHO I AM
MY STRUGGLES ARE WITHIN, AND THAT, I CAN DO WITHOUT
ALL OF MY LIFE IS NOT A SIN
STRENGTH IN LOVE I NEVER DOUBT
I’M NOT A PACIFIST, BUT PEACE IS BETTER THEN WAR
I’M NOT A PESSAMIST BUT I’VE LOST FAITH BEFORE
I’VE WITNESSED HARSH REALITIES
I’VE TASTED BITTERNESS IN MY OWN HEART
LOSING THE WARMTH WAS A FATALITY
I HAD TO FLATLINE AND RESTART
I DON’T BELIEVE IN MAGIC
I BELIEVE IN MAGICAL MOMENTS
DISAPPEARING WOULD BE QUITE TRAGIC
THE CRAFT HAS ONE OPPONENT
I’M A SELF PROCLAIMED HUMANITARIAN
NON JUDGEMENTAL
WITH AN OPINION
MY DEPTH KEEPS VARYING
MY HEART
MY DOMINION.
