I am myself. But who am I? Who is "myself?"
I am the girl who acts sunny and unruffled, as if
the sea is always calm,
the sun always shines,
that it is smooth and happy
within and without;
that I've never been tainted by
shadows...
Inside, I am weak with burning rage,
overwhelming sadness,
constant paranoia...
I feel the world's weight upon my shoulders,
yet I am not responsible for all that I take upon myself.
I take what I have for granted,
and I am filled with faults.
My thoughts overlap in unnatural, akward ways,
and by what I mean by what I say and what I truly mean
are
two
different
things.
I write these observations down so I can
look back and see
how weak I've become.
I've allowed myself sadness and anger and hate...
Everyone says that those are not weaknesses, but strengths...
But watch me punish myself anyways.
Now, I've been called foolish, for my logic goes
in circles.
Around
and
around
and
around...
But these flaws make me who am am...
And I am myself...
But who am I? Who is myself?

- your logic isnt flawed it is only sckewed..to be truthful with ones self is in essence to know who you truely are...to know who you are is to know everything who you want to be and everything that you can be. to know oneself is to know the past present and future...so therefor no one truely knows who they are...they just believe what they see
