I wrote this poem in the 90's but it goes with how I am feeling at this moment...Trying again to turn over a new leaf...lol...I hope that everyone had a safe, blessed New Years celebration...I stayed in and watch NY's ball drop and went fast asleep mins after :)
I am not like anyone you have ever met
But I am someone you may never forget
I take things as they come
I make sure the job gets done
At times I may cause unnecessary stress
But don’t worry it is just a test
I am a very thoughtful person
I like to discuss the problem from the start before things worsen
I don’t have time and energy for drama
Treat me like you would treat your momma
That should be with the utmost respect
Always come correct
I am very strong
I have been done wrong
I have been through too much in my life
I am still here despite
I will not tolerate ignorance
I love to keep you in suspense
I stand up for what I believe
I have many goals I plan to achieve
I am very sincere in my efforts
I am consistent in my endeavors
I am honest and open-minded
I do not walk around blinded
I see the people for what they are
I appreciate the bizarre
I am very dedicated and loyal
Myself I love to spoil
Take time to get to know me before you judge
I will always be there to give you that nudge
I don’t need anyone or anything to define
What flows through my spine
I will always be me
That I can guarantee

The Realness...I like. You give off the vibe that your a REAL person. By that I mean, ppl who know you, know what to expect. Unless you've changed a lot since the 90's:)
So true E, no, I just got more open....Tell it like it is, is there any other way?
