I'm proud to be who I am,
A man who stands amongst others,
Yet stands out,
How you may ask?

Im quiet but inside I'm speaking,
These bold words and statements,
Are the pinnacle of everything I've embraced,
Thoughts that should've been erased

Yet I harbored those and turned them into creations,
Beautiful visions with hurtful over tones,
That people get to dissect and make of them what they want,
My words are the embodiment of pain and love combined

Hurt, anger, depression,
Laughter, smiles, tears,
Love, pride, failures,
Everything that I've witnessed through my vision

An out of body experience that may correlate to yours,
Yet I'll speak it for you,
Because it's what makes me feel complete,
These words that I've been gifted to give

So when you read what I write,
I advise you to know the author,
See the vision through my eyes,
And maybe you'll understand why

I write as much as I do,
I give all that I can,
Because I can understand the hurt and pain most endure,
And if I can't I can surely speak to you in any way possible

I want to make a lasting impact with these words,
Affect history even heal misery,
But I have to stay true to who I am and all that I bare,
I'm just an author who accepts who he is.
