Unidentified *

just figuring out me.... Very much edited by Kara Emily Krantz. <3 && the picture goes with it. i took them myself. :)

Who am I really?
I've been attacked and bruised
and tickled and kissed
What is a girl to become from this?

I push away those I love,
but, then again, I hold on too tight
I'm choking now (I can barely breathe)
I am fighting for my life

When I meet someone new:
"Just be yourself," they say.
but...
I have no idea who that is.
Where is my mind?
(I'm losing it)

Do I like curling up with mom,
or tangling up with boys?
Do I like to get dirty,
or do I miss my old toys?
I don't know how, but
I would like to think I'm both
(I still don't know how my story goes)

I want to please God,
but then again... whatever.
I want to be a good girl
but sometimes bad feels better.

I let out a breath
(I must confess)
I have no idea
Who Mariah is.

This poem reminds me of so many people who have come and some have left out of my life. Your words read as real and like your seeking and searching yourself for answers. I luv the honesty you write. With all the confusion as who you are it gives you that mystery, that uniquness that charming women seem to have. Great write!

[Black Rose]

It seems like you wrote about me haha you don't even know me though. I love the honesty you showed and the doubts of what we are. Trying to find our own identity. I also feel like I don't know who I am. :) loved it

[MorganLyn]

I absolutely love this poem. I think every person struggles with these feelings at one point in their life or another. The things we want and what we're supposed to do always end up contradicting each other...
very well written and an enjoyable read!

This poem is very full of raw emotion and a very good read as well. You can feel the confusion throughout the words written. A good write.

Absolutely brilliant! Such a bittersweet confession, seeking to know the "real you." Loved the playful depth! (Sorry to say, but I'm STILL trying to find out who I am! Hope you find out a lot sooner!!!)

awww it looks and sounds great!! i love how you're so open to editing :) it will take you far. i rebelled against it foryears, and wasted a lot of time lolol :)

i love this.... i love your thoughts... so many girls can relate, i am sure. it's great that you're so introspective, and that you at least take the time to think about who you are, and the kind of person you want to become.

big hugs
