I am

Beautiful with some ugly parts

Successful despite many failings

Strong and weak all at once

Prone to both bravery and cowardice

.

A light to others yet in darkness

Well put together and messy

Wise beyond my years

Not immune to idiocy

.

Reconciling my duality

Navigating both extremes

Struggling to love all parts of me equally

A victim of circumstances

.

Trying to muster the courage

to stand up for myself

Trying to live up to my persona

to both show and tell

.

Locked in, observing my fate

Paralysed by my fear

Eloquently vocal

Silent about my pain

.
