AS I AM

LIZ


Notice of absence from LIZ
PEACE, LOVE, LIGHT!


I am darkness, I am light, I will never be a "type". You can't put me in a box; don't hold me to stereotypes.

 

And, of course I can be nice, but don't try me, I can bite. You can fight me all you want, but the truth just doesn't lie.

 

I am world, I am raw, can be sweet, sometimes shy. Good intentions on my mind, but my boundaries are high.

 

You can't force me, I won't hide; but I'll always choose to rise. See, I know who I am; took me years to find my rhyme.

 

You can question all you want, I won't fit into your slot.

                      Roar oh Lioness
                      Let your Poetry define
                      your undeniable worth!
                      Your words make me want to lift weights
                      or do dreamscape pullups
                      or settle for drinking water...
                      but drink a cup all-in-one-go
                      then pant theatrically
                      like I just finished a marathon
                      easily...
                      your poetry infuses me
                      with so much excess energy
                      Brilliant!

                      • LIZ

                        Ayyyyy πŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ I'm so grateful for you! Thank you very much! ! And ummmm we're not settling for drinking water. I'll teach you a thing or two about weight lifting! I promise I'll go......sort of....easy on you! Lol πŸ˜‰ Honestly, you're the best! YOU, sir, inspire ME!! ✨️
