I am a contradiction,

Because I love a beautiful flowing dress
-more than any other clothing.
But I hate material possessions.
-a side effect of my journey to becoming "all knowing".

I prefer not to wear jewelry, much for the same reasons,
-But I sentimentally wear this amethyst ring my grandmother gave me every single season.

I dislike conflict, yelling, and fighting.
-But I will die fighting for justice, even outside of my writing.

If we traced back my origins, I am sure we could find,
- the exact moment everything was thrown off course, and how it led to this moment in time.

I never realized until the ripe age of twenty two,
the magnitude I have always had for loving you.
(even if I don't want to...)

I like kids more than I will ever like an adult,
- they are less prone to judgement and still use their imaginations, so we get a long better as a result.  

Sometimes I feel like a vessel the world will use until I'm dry.
-because sometimes I have to take in all the dark clouds, so everyone else can have a clear sky.
