I am brutally honest, I paint pictures with words, I possess aged thoughts like tobacco leaves, my soul is swimming upstream, I love to read, I don't write enough, I'm spontaneous though never fail to think anything through, I'm my own worst enemy, I'm a hypocrite, I admire a child's innocence, I believe in me, I know how to love, I know how to hurt, I have broken hearts, my own heart contains various scars which make it unique, I'm over-confident, I have multiple faults that I'll never admit, I'm a closed book with a worn cover, I long for the very things I protect myself against, I'm defensive though not afraid to take the offensive, I believe in balance, I trust only those with the power to further hurt my being, I stand firm on two feet, I long for the stars, I kiss by the book, I believe the eyes before the mouth, I want all the world has to offer, I have a million questions, I don't have all the answers...but I'm damn close.
