i am

I am deep
I am shallow
I am blissfully merry
I am melancholy blue
I am an example
I am a hypocrite
I am a liar
I am a champion for truth...


I am smart
and dense
silly
then intense
growing
and regressing
easy-going
and oppressing
I am creative
and lacking ideas
gung ho
and unmotivated to tears
I am insightful
and introspective
I can be blinded
and fearful of reflection
I am doubtful
and assured
I am as lively
as I am bored...


I am someone...
and no one at all
a dot in this universe
infinitesimally small
I am meek
and queenly
I reign
and get rained on
I am the master
and the pawn


Weaknesses
Strengths
Accents
Demerits
I am all of these things...
learning and teaching daily
never to be defined by anything
but the love I embody from Him...


I am someone and no one
Loved and Hated
Blamed and Absolved
I accept who I am
and reject what I'm not
what is immovable
unchangeable
nonnegotiable
is that...I am alive.
