A Poem from Angel.
I Am ME.
I am me.
I am my past, it has allowed me to be.
I am me, in my conscience form of understanding unconsciously.
I have shifted the paradigm of my subconscious to its prime.
I am me. I stand for truth, love, peace and prosperity.
Open to receive the fruit of my thoughts by preparing
For that of which I asked mentally, physically, financially.
I ..am..me. Through trial and tribulation and conversation,
my higher being guided my lower being out of its casualties.
I met my spirit and engaged in conversations both out loud
And in my mind. They thought I was out of my
Mind but instead I was inside of it tweaking it's realities.
I am me, faithful, consistent toppled with integrity.
Confident, fearless and persevering my way to live abundantly.
I am me. I have spread my wings to fly because I admire
Nature and the sky's limitless and spacious actualities.
I believe that the sky is endless..
but there has to be something beyond that faculty.
I..am..me. My passions have consumed my thoughts
Thus far I am unstoppable because my vision
Is the only thing that understands what I can see.
I am me. Thinking thoughts of positivity for I am
Not closed minded and will change the lives
Of those who view life negatively. I was once there
And I will prove that life is not the enemy.
For the enemy lies within thyself when your inner voice, thoughts
And actions are not in harmony.
God! I am me!! I possess wisdom and understanding
Of what I can be because I am me! For my cup
Runneth over and my light shines vibrantly.
Pulsating with fervency, I see a light burning bright
Piercing through self doubt, hatred and fear to unknot my soul.
I..am..me! and I love who I am because I am who set me free.
I..... Am..... me! -Angel Swanigan 6/2/2015
