A Poem: I am More Than…

 

There is more to me than my blog,

And I’m more then my Youtube channel.

I’m more than my reign as a Pageant Queen and the brands that I model.

There is more to me than the Pretty face looking back at your a screen.

I’m more than the list I make and the goals I must reach.

I’m more than just a number in my family tree.

6 sisters  and 3 brothers,

Multiracial adoption has changed me.

If you take a moment you will see your projections you put on me.

You’ll see a mirror with your reflection that’s doesn’t have anything to do with me.

I don’t need to know what you think of me. It’s none of my business.

Make up whatever lie you’d like so you live comfortably in your own self absorbed fantasy.

There is a whole lot more to me than the first impression that you read.

Yes, I am a dog lover, a beauty product addict

But I’m also horribly sarcastic.

I’m an open book if you’d like to read,

I also wear my heart on my sleeve.

I am  a riddle coated in irony.

You must speak Heideniese

If you knew me from years ago I’m sorry

But you don’t know me.

Thank you for coming to my party

You will learn a side of me

But just be aware I am more complex

Than the black and white you read.
