When I wake up in the morning, I have rocks in my eyes that'll put your rings to shame. I'm not the daintiest of women I square my shoulders up and try to brace myself for the fall whenever I wear four inch heels or higher I like t-shirts and sweatshirts with sassy and cool logos Comic strip socks and cufflinks catch my attention before any dress would I'm not perfect. My hair is not always combed and I've never heard of another woman who has intense OCD but is at the same time extremely unorganized. I'm a walking contradiction, an enigma to say the least. I can eat brownies but react to cake. My breath doesn's smell like apple pie in the morning and my pajamas consist of boxers and shirts three times my size. I have a slight lisp when I speak and a face that refuses to soften even when I'm happy. No I'm not mad, I'm good.. Thats just how my face is. I don't believe in promises made by people because i've witnessed more broken ones than those fulfilled. I'd rather let my yes be my yes and my no, a solid no. I have a soul so old I could've kept your greatgrandma company and yet a spirit so young you'd think I was five again. I've yet to find the balance. I don't catch people's eyes the first or second time but I heard third times the charm. I'm simply Geraldine. I snort when I laugh and **** in my sleep And at times I burp out the alphabet. I'm just me. Some days I'm sweet and on other days insane. I break my own heart at times before anyone else gets to it But one thing's for sure is that I am fearfully and wonderfully made And my flaws are a thing of beauty to the heart meant to love me... for me
