I Am...
November 30, 2017
I am calm and happy.
I wonder how far I'll go,
I hear all of my encouragement,
I see the love towards me,
I want to do my best.
I am fake and sad.
I pretend I'm somebody I'm not,
I feel the pain rushing through my body,
I touch my heart to warm it,
I worry I'm not good enough,
I cry, only when I am alone.
I am successful and loving.
I understand the struggle of life,
I say I will make it,
I dream to be a better person,
I try to be my best,
I hope I can make people proud,
I am calm and happy.

I wrote this poem because as it changes from calm and happy to sad and dark, it represents my life. I usually go through a phase where I can be really happy on esecond and then get sad.
