The Very Core of My Being

Location

You know me by my name,

you know me by my face.

You know me by my actions,

you know me by my words.

 

But you dont know me by my thoughts, or feelings.

You don't know me by my desires, and ambitions.

You don't know me by my strengths, or weaknesses.

You don't know me by my intentions.  

You don't know me to the very core of my being. 

 

I am more than just a name, 

I am more than just a face.

I am more than my actions, 

more than my words.

 

Get to know me to the very core of my being. 

Define me by my desires, and ambitions.

Define me by my actions, and intentions.

Define me by my feelings, and thoughts that are shared.

Get to know me to the very core of my being.

 

Get to know me to the core. 

Learn to accept me for who I am, 

everything that I am, 

and that is apart of who I am. 

Learn to love me for me.

I am who I am, 

so take me or leave me. 

 

I am more than my identity,

I am more than i appear to be.

I am a rose with many, many petals,

a puzzle with numerous pieces yet to be put together.

A book with countless unread pages,

a ground with many layers of undiscovered earth.

I am me, 

and there is no one i'd rather be.
