I am like a rose, sharp, but easily bruised.
I am like a house cat, not easily amused.
I am like the ocean, changing with the tides.
I am like the river, and the rocks with which it collides.

I can be like the winter, harsh and cold.
I can be like molten metal, trying to fit into the mould.
I can be like a storm, unpredictable, and never completely calm
I can be like a book, and as steady as a psalm.

I will be like a dog, needing nothing yet everything.
I will be like my mother, calm, collected and at times comforting.
I will say what I am, and I must confess:
I will be me, no more, and no less.

I give a whole new meaning to the word 'sad.'

Well, sorry, but I really don't feel comfortable being called "hun." It kinda reminds me of something that I'd like to forget.

Torn are her limbs
By quiet hands that
Tug life(color) out of her.
Gnawing edges round
Into a broken(satisfying)
