The Present You
You are a fluid, ever-changing person. So tell me about the current you. Who are you right now? Who are you now that you haven't been before? Who won't you ever be again? What are your current goals, challenges and emotions, and how do they differ from the past and future? How have you changed, and how will you change? What about you has remained constant? How do you feel about your current self? How are you molding, expressing, and using your current identity? In any form, tell me who you are in the present moment. Don't hold back.

Am I?

I used to be confident.

I used to be able

I was proud of my work

Happy with my friends

Then It happened.

She came

I lost

A lot of people lost.

She made fun

She tore me up

Ripped me to shreds

Killed my passions.

After years of beatings

And being guilt tripped

Crying over my mistakes

Shrinking.

Years after

Hiding my dreams

Shielding the little I had left.

Trying to hold on.

I finally let go

Tried to fix myself.

I'm a little better now

I am almost back to normal.

But it is all coming back again.

Little by little.

Not by a ill fitted friend.

But by others.

I cannot leave

only endure.

And hope I make it

with everything I built intact.

It isn't fair

It isn't right.

Why do I have to go though It again.

But I learned.

I think I can make it

And keep my hopes

And keep my dreams

Maybe even make something of it.
