I AM - a son a brother a grand-son a nephew a cousin a friend. I am a partner a student a young boy, and a grown man. I am confident and scared, terrified and excited. I am loving and caring, and thoughtful and hopeful. I am sick and tired. I am shy and friendly, and careful and careless. I am broken and whole. I am misunderstood, misguided, and mislead. I am hard working and determined, but a lil scared on the inside. I wish on stars and dream my dreams. I pray to God and cry my tears. I smile on the outside, while I'm dying on the inside. I listen to others who won't listen to me. I walk on eggshells, and I walk on fire. I believe in passion, but not true love. I love you and I push you away. I want you but not so close. I am everything and nothing all at once.
