[me]

I am
rage, enclosed inside myself�
contained.
I am
stoic, hollow on the outside�
restrained.
I am bubbly and quirky and
just a bit blonde on the inside, I am
unstable,
unable to be.
I hide all of my secrets
and I live vicariously.

I am bipolar�
I am young� yet I am older.
I�m the sweet from sour,
and I�m the procrastinator
who can�t use up the seconds
that time greedily devours.

I am indomitable
but I sometimes act too weak.
The world tries to tell me I�m normal�
eccentric,
mysterious,
unique�
Anything but what I truly am:
a bona fide freak!

I like to sleep in the day
and at night I stay up late.
I am dreams� and nightmares
where I live in my world
of surreal fantasy.
But what I imagine,
that which is my passion,
I must create�
�because I like things tangible.

I am Emerald�
silent laughter hidden in
the sparkle of my green eyes.
The words spoken from my mouth
reflect my countenance:
both too little
and too much at once;
I never said what�s right�
I am wrong�
like a lone star that
shimmers silently in the night,
pulling my light
into the void
of mystical delusions.
I am lies.

I am not perfect
but I am Me:
both mellow and explicit...
I am Little Girl, Carol Ann,
Freelance Writer
and Videogame Extraordinaire.

This is me.
I am.
