I Am Simply Me

Location

Nigeria

My life is fairly bland,

but it belongs to me.

I’m not popular,

but my friends are more than enough.

I tend to be impulsive

saying and doing what I want when I want.

I can hide my emotions,

better than anyone I know.

I fight, dace and destroy

standing up for what I believe in.

I have no tolerance for the rude,

or the racist and homophobic.

I won’t admit my faults but,

I do know I make mistakes.

I am the sunrise after a sleepless night, blinding your eyes.

If my life was a playlist,

it’s be filled with acoustic songs.

It would be boring, but it would be me.

Dear Rose, I’m no Juliet,

I’m simply me.
