Me in a nutshell...

Careful steps I take

In this maze of a life

Never knowing

If it all ends tonight

All I can be 

Is what I give 

And what you see

Irrevocable certainty

As I stand here

I wonder

Is this really real?

Is this who I am?

I feel so undone

It tears me up inside

Look me in the eyes 

And tell me...

This isn't the end

You've got a long way

I'll hold your hand

And guide you through

Poetry?

Shallow cuts,

Felt deep within my soul.

Emotions wind a river, 

Through my veins.

Careening deeper to a hidden source,

That even I know not the way.
