I AM WHO I AM

pushing beyond the chaotic wonder

BLANK

I am an empty piece of paper with rambling words written in invisible ink. I am chaos.

With voices constantly creating a scene of utter babel, I appear unscathed on this battlefield; I am peace.

I think in perfect order and speak in rambles; I am confusion

I set goals and draft out plans; I am clarity

A stitch out of place unravels my serenity; I am perfection

Inconsistency’s tiny crack spreads unease; I am obsessive

My mind is a sieve, where lessons slip through the holes of my forgetfulness, I am inveterate

I’m a canvas of repeated mistakes, each brushstroke a testament to my unlearned lessons.

Dangerously clinging to the miracle of change, I am hopeful

Unapologetically overly excited, constantly awaiting a better tomorrow, I am joy

I am a result of my environment, a boundless and timeless pursuit to do more than exist, to live vibrantly.

I am persistent; I am who I am. I am you.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God- Philippians 4:6
