19 Mar I am Pearl
I wrote this poem when I was 15…I am 27 now, I reference it whenever I feel as though I have forgotten who i am.
I am Pearl
And this is me
I am a different
Girl
Tangible yet subtle
Simple yet complex
Fiery and fierce
But not fictitious
And when provoked rather vicious
Lustrous yet bizarre
Round and delicate
Deceptively unique
Extremely passionate
Scrupulous although zealous
Proceed from oyster
Genuine and exquisite in everyone’s eyes
I am Pearl
And this is me
Glowing as I rise
I am Pearl and this is me
No good man can despise
I am Pearl
And this is me
Shining like the sun
I am Pearl
And this is me
But I’m not the only one
