I am a mother, a wife
A friend, a teacher
I seek happiness
I love deep
Only souls not faces
Always loyal
I don't judge  
I love to help
I see good in everyone
Which makes me naive at times
I am open to all
Hoping for a world
Where everyone fits
Labels don't exist

I latch to rules
Anxiety demands
I suffer from OCD
Always chasing order
Shackled by disinfection  
I am comfortable in control
Leading the way
I seek to inspire
I believe in others
I am honest with my feelings
I value experience
And learn from them
I reflect on my day
Always trying to improve
I search for meaning in conversations
Enjoy learning new things daily

I play sports
Love music  
Enjoy Art
Express myself in writes
Fascinated by abstracts
Reading words to gain insight
The grace in movement  
The beauty in visual artistry

I love to re-discover nature
The acoustics of birds
Waterfalls and rain
Kissing falling snow
Connecting with our majestic sky
I love the stillness
Each morning brings
The dew sleeping in the emerald
The lacquered canvas
Of quiet lakes
Motionless  
In something so vast

Yoga is my philosophy
A healthy
Body
Mind
And spirit
My destination is
The pursuit of enlightenment  
In my life's pain
I am coming out of the spiral
Enjoying my journey
Seeing straight
Swimming the unalome
I feed my soul
Hoping IT can lead me
Leaving my ego in my wake

I remain unfinished
I continue to wear masks
Sometimes to hide
As I fear rejection
Still..
As happy as I seem
As lovely as I am
My soul has a shadow
Hidden inside
My essence traced
By shaded light
I am a survivor
Broken in places
Finally accepting my true self

My first "this is me" poem was from my skewed perception of my teenage self.
I like this one more :) it's more optimistic ;)

I went to the Dr's for an injection
To clear both my feet of fungal infection
He first had a look and made the detection
That four of my toes needed correction
But whilst he was there I made the connection
This Dr was showing unusual affection
He ****** on a toe with no disinfection
But regretted it later on further reflection

There is nothing
Quite as purifying
As the frustration
Of knowing
What is coming next

And having
No power
To stop it

It is purifying
Because the blood
Boils at such heat
That nothing can
Survive

Sterility through anger
Disinfection through rage
Cleansing through fury

Fists balled into
Ivory white
Wrecking *****
Teeth clenched
Spine rigid

A barbed tongue
Spits silent curses
Into the syrupy haze
Of a July afternoon

In general, most things
moved to other rooms after disinfection.
Some of them, of course, kept the smell,
and were immediately thrown away.
Clothes were selectively
used as workwear or rags.
Found weapon was returned
to a safe. Under the iron bed there were even
two extra rounds. One tooth
with a caries mark.
The rest idled in closets.

i been busting my soul for one person,
working all night to satisfy the others,
regret that i felt nothing,
its not like i love you,
because i know you read my poetry everyday,
you gave me  muse the never ending ideas,
so i kept writing everyday.

You know i been locking my self,
to the world,
because of insecurity of others
that they don't trust

there was an old man that i meet,
few weeks ago,
what sadden me that his car broke down,
he told me that none of his child does not care of him,
prying and crying everyday,
to disinfection my sorrow,
to eliminate all negativity,
nothing that i ever done seems to satisfy people,
i been walking through all  these pain,
pain of others that i felt,

no matter how hard i sang my poetry,
it is my escape to see the other world,
a world that i create,
filled with stories that you probably don't understand,
is it not that i wanted to bury you,
i spare you from the cryings you carry,
i would not be sorry for the things you do too,
i would be not forget what the hard work you put me through,

i'm just one man that writes and draw,
a picture of you still in my pocket,
i did  looked at everyday,
i asked myself this everyday,
why do you  want to make people happy,
it is not my choice its is my job that i was  gone for,
yet i never complain nor never regret.

a disinfection from all assumption
all could, should, or any other uld
can be a slow roasting, but worth it.

In the mist of the morning sun,
where the Winter, where water's run,
where the fog lifts and the dew shines,
Where birds sing and wildlife signs,
Where exercise is keeping to the guidelines,
whether it is Coronavirus or Tuberculosis Bovine,
from a coughing person or a coughing cattle,
or sat at home watching the news channel,
or staring out of the window at the skyline.

In the mist of the morning sun,
Where the spring. Where the Flower Bloom,
Where the birds sing and Wildlife Assume,
Where Exercising is keeping to the guidelines,
Whether it is Coronavirus or Swine Flu,
hearing the Cuck-coo, hearing the shrews,
From Coughing person or sneezing pigs,
Seeing the graves being dug, hearing the snapping of the twigs.

In the mist of the morning sun,
Where the summer, where the early morning come,
Where the birds sing and wildlife run,
Where the summer holidays have begun,
Water gun or favourite son,
Where exercising is keeping to the guidelines,
Whether it is Coronavirus or Chikungunya Virus,
Or Children and Adults suffering from retrovirus,
or just a plain old summer Myxovirus.

In the mist of the morning sun,
Where the Autumn comes, where the early morns dawn,
where the cold air comes and bonfire night drawn.
Where exercising is keeping to the guidelines,
Whether it is Coronavirus or a basic streptococcus infection,
worried about the doctors finding a coronavirus connection,
worried about family and friends disconnection,
Rejection, subjection, protection, deflection,
Injection, ****** anteflexion, disinfection,
Imperfection, Caesarean section, General election.

Every virus and disease, All started as novel,
In the start Killed hundred's, thousands even millions,
As much as a novel virus/disease pandemic feels awful,
Government seem to be unlawful,
Mother Earth might be going Menopausal,
Humanity has become so hostile,
If you think novel then your wrongful.
