who i am

i have been thinking a lot lately. 
about many things. 
but also
trying to find out who the hell i am. 
and this is the nice stuff about myself i came up with

I'm six pairs of the same cut, color, and style jeans,
Two weeks of long, lazy vacation
And short five minute showers.
I'm "I don't care what you wear"
Now and then I'm moody.

I'm a Toyota with the music too loud
With my brown hair streaming out the window
I'm a soft place to land
And a good feeling knowing
I'm a warm conversation
That no one would miss for anything
I'm a fiercesome fighter when I'm mad,
A great listener ne'er just waiting to speak.

I'm the girl who goes spinning through the rain
And will leave muddy footprints in your kitchen.
I'm a geniune smile, laugh, hug, compliment, shoulder
Whenever, whereever you need them.
I am a good book, a comfortable chair, and a soft light
I'm a "Let's never grow old."
"Of course you can do that. Let's figure out how."
"I'll love you no matter what you do, how far you travel,
How hard you push me away."

I'm shouldering too much reponsibility,
Singing along to the music completely off-key.
Stories I read aloud with too much enthusiasm
And a very horrible English accent. 
I don't always do things the way I should
And I'm full of lessons learned from mistakes made before.
Deep down, I'm the quiet one in the back of the room
Happily buried in books, art, and music.

I'm long drives to good music.
I'm the paint on my black shoes.
I am homemade, handmade pasta, remembering you don't like nuts.
I'm a half-drowned cell phone, a dozen text messages, and a hand to hold.
I'm not the doctor, I'm not your other half, I believe 1+1=2.
I'm your life-long lesson, the one you'll never forget.
I'm my architectural photographs, my simple poetry, my planned prose.
I am dark eyes, dark hair, and a mind.
