I turn the simplest things into multifaceted crystals.Im not easy going or relaxed.Im overflowing.

Im overflowing with thoughts and ideas that lead me all over the map.

I dont move smoothly from Point A to Point B. I jump.

And sometimes, I have to go backwards.

Im complicated.I easily turn molehills into mountains in my head.

I jump onto new thoughts like a train, moving full steam ahead.Im sensitive.I live in the extremes.

I live in the highs and the lows, the blues and the golds.

I live in the warm hues of fire embers and the cool shades of snow.

My heart is spontaneous, my mind is elaborate.

I am often uncertain.I rarely know exactly what I want.

And what I want rarely knows where to meet me.Im not casual.I like to know things.

I want to know things.

I want to know specifics.

I want to know times and dates and hours and minutes.

I want to know what to expect.Im free spirited.I want room to wander and to be free.

I want room to find joys in the smallest places and the tiniest moments.

I dont want to be restrained by time or by expectations.

And when I break, I reform.

I know that I am messy.

I know that I am complicated.

Im not simple.

Im not easy going.

I know that my messiness makes life harder than it needs to be.

I know that I have a tendency to force my mind to work when it really needs to rest.

I know that I never give my heart a break.

I know that all of my thoughts and emotions end up exhausting my soul.

And sometimes Ive considered that life would be easier if I were simple.

But Ive learned a secret: I like being messy.

I dont judge other people based on whether they fit in a perfect frame.

And you know what?
