I AM..

a daughter
a grand-daughter
a niece
a cousin
a friend
a lover
a young girl and a grown woman.

i am--
confident and scared
terrified and excited.
loving and caring
thoughtful and hopeful.

i am--
sick and tired.
shy and friendly.
careful and careless.

i am--
broken and whole.

i am being misunderstood,misguided
and mislead.

i am--
hard-working and determined but
a little scared on the inside.

i wish on the stars and dream my dreams.
i pray to GOD and cry my tears.
i smile on the outside while im dying on the inside.
i listen to others who won't listen to me.
i believe in passion but not in true love.
i love you and i want you but not so close.

i am everything and nothing-- ALL at once
and all i want for you is to --LOVE ME!
