Vast Possibilities Poems | Examples


List of Member Poems

I am who

In my quest for self discovery 

I realised the problem plain to see

Anxiety, timidity and ignorance 

Bravado,pride and arrogance 

All gain my innocuous disdain.

My desire for acceptance 

Left me baffled on the importance 

Of self love and self worth. 

The vast possibilities that would be

Who I was, who I am, who I could be.

The doubt, confusion and fears

Have led me here.

I may not be perfect 

But these attributes identify me.

I dare not change me

For I am different

I love different, and I love me.
