I have a happy personality, and a sad soul. I'm bold but shy. Ilove deeply, but sometimes feel heartless. I'm healing and hurting at the same time. I'm dedicated to growth, but I self-sabotage. I'm trying to find peace within a lifetime of contradictions. I crave connection, yet often pull away. I dream of being understood, but struggle to open up. Some days I shine, some days I disappear. I carry hope like it's fragile glass-breakable, but still worth holding. And through it all, I'm learning that being a paradox doesn't make me broken—it makes me real.
