i am...a drifter
on a sea of dreams
i am...afraid
in a world of uncertainty
i am...sincere
honest and fair
i am...an open book
you may misinterpret
i am...deep
you may find me within
i am...darkness
where truth is present
i am...light
if you should stumble
i am...inspiration
if you seek to be inspired
i am...art
when i draw myself in
i am...contradiction
rebel and angel
i am...shy
but ever bold
i am...passion
i am...longing
i am...real
i am..poet
because i breathe

DG~
This is wonderfully well-done.

'i am...an open book
you may misinterpret'


As long as they read you ...
each page is open to interpretation ~
I LOVE IT !
My favorite line - wish I'da thunk it !

And this is super -

'i am...darkness
where truth is present
i am...light
if you should stumble'

DgV,
  You sound like a very interesting, multi-faceted person- who has a strong sense of self-yet some underscovered mystery as well. You are one who has a lot going for you, even as your poetry shows.
