WHO AM I? -MY PERSONALITY



A simple question which demands a complicated answer
I am human, something peculiar
Not just a living thing but a living,  breathing being and even much more
A former baby and a future breathless body, a skeleton
Yes I am a distant future pile of dust
Actually a Gemini on the cusp
Interestingly,  I'm a brother who fills a sister's gap
Probably a daddy to be
I am concepts and thoughts,  feelings and outfits
I'm this and I'm that
If our own words make us then I am what I say
To the multitude: a fantasy and to the few:Frank
I'm a mystery wrapped in an enigma which is furthermore wrapped in a pita
Why the pita? That counts as another mystery
I am ugly and still ugly: no two ways about that
I am nothing and everything
I am my own worst critic
The silent yet powerful majority and the loud yet powerless minority
I'm a friend and a foe: good and bad
I am valor and I am daring
I am what I take in: food in all aspects

Often the one they call 'You' I am
But I am not more 'You' than you
I am 'Me' and I am more 'Me' than you are or can ever be
Somewhere close to your heart or lost in your mind
Yes, that's me
I need something but expect nothing for no other reason than 'Expectations lead to disappointments'
I love always but trust not always
I'm he who is loved and hated simultaneously
I am right and wrong,  nobody's perfect in all ways
I am the fatherless child, son of a late pauper
Knowing me is a lifelong journey
A journey that seems short when viewed from a distance but far in reality
This is who I am, this is my personality

HOW HE ENTERED ME

Image
Gosh, he's huge and he's going to enter me. Though I've dealt with pain most of my life, I still wonder how this will seem to be. Especially when I take a glance at little Phoebe and after he entered her. It's like his very touch made her whole life sad. Who was that who entered her? But on the other side, look at Valerie too and how she carries herself about. Was all that not after they said he came into her life? Now she's as joyous than she could ever be. All  because of him I presume. Who is he? Well, there's a man who said he'll never leave "me" nor forsake "me". Through the darkest points and behind closed doors he'll be "my" key. I remember the Sunday school madam said that's what God said. But he said he could be him in my life if only I may.   My life's not being perfect, far from what I thought it will be The wrongs I've done and things I've touched. The lies I told, infact on s...

HATRED LOVE

Image
Princess:  All my life, I waited to feel the way you made my emotions flutter in butterfly and honey ways; before you switched from best friend to worst enemy.    The arguments, the insulting shots, distance ... the failed promises to be mentioned with your big lie of making me a missus. Maybe you deserve better But that better is in no way, me. I only realised that the assurance of counting on you was but a fleeting fantasy And now I know... Now I know that dancing with you was the end to my majestic movements Never careful with your words when you spat them in my face, slowing my pace and throwing me into a maze of love and so much hate just to make me dazed. So shocking that you fail to remember how I was your valentine Oh Valentine! I hope you've lost the guts to ever utter the word because it'll be only when you dare, shamefully to broach the word, that gladly make your downfall my dine with the sourest and acidic lime ! Danielthepoet: So is this what you are saying?...

IS THIS LOVE?

Image
Is this love? Is there a definition for love, or we are trying to create a definition for love? Are the differences in love, or we are trying to create differences in love? Did types of love exist or we have  created those types? Is this love? There is a kind of love we show to our Creator, another kind we show to our friends,another kind to our love partners and another one to our  neighbours. Is this love? Is this how love is supposed to be? Are we now trying to practice fish love? This fish love came about when I heard a story from one old man which was titled "Fish love". And this is what he said: "One day a man was eating fish in a restaurant and I walked up to him and asked; 'Please,why are u eating that fish' and he said, because I love the fish." So he loved the fish, that is why he took it out of the water, boiled it, fried it and now eating it. This is fish love. Do we pretend to show love, while we stab in the back. If ...
