pieces of me

fragments.

incohesive pieces.

An identity scattered;

part genetics

part molded.

Opinionated,

but open minded.

Quiet and meek,

but full of passion.

Full of hope

but cynical at

every turn.

Hoping

she ain't broken,

she apologizes

for bumping into

furniture

but will expel a

lion's roar

to protect her soul.

Confused

at the thought of

explaining an existence

with a core that is

constant

with

constantly changing variables.
