Just Me

a quick poem with a good message and well worth the read ... yes yes :) love to all

You ask me who I am 

Just me is my reply 

You say that there’s much more to me

Yet your statement I deny 

I am a trickle in eternity 

A passing cloud above in the sky 

Star-dust falling down to earth 

Just me learning to fly 

When I look upon myself 

In askance of who I be

No lies with what is discovered

No hiding from just me 

In my own perfection 

I notice my many flaws 

Just lessons in this time and space 

Allows transgression through new doors

Others may look upon me 

Scowling in disdain 

But that’s not me in their reflection 

They need the time to look again 

Searching for life’s purpose 

Within hope and aspiration 

Walking through a smokey haze 

Arriving at life’s destination 

Ancient ripples through my body 

Reminder of the wisdom’s we already  know

Travelling to right here, right now 

Just me, I’ve taken time to grow 

Just me is all I am 

Just me is all I be 

Just as I am just like you 

You too are just like me

Oh wow, this is the perfect message being sent out here and an even better message that more people should realise. I really don't think we need to change for anyone, we are all the same, no matter race, size. I think we all really need to realise that. I adore this poem and the message. You done great!
