Who am I?

I am loving, a little rebellious

I am selfish and selfless

I am ruled by my emotions 

I feel like they change like the tides of the oceans

 

I make music with my hands

I walk on my toes watching the sky expands 

I write to calm my nerves and help me think

I doodle when I am feeling sick

 

I lie to shield the pain

I dance to salsa at three in the morning to calm my brain

I sometimes take from others more than I give

I smile behind eyes that deceive

 

I overthink in the middle of the night

I watch movies from night to light 

I may be flawed but that’s alright 

I still will shine bright
