A Part of Me

A.M. Morgan
I am spiritual

But I can still sin

I am honest

But a lie can still creep onto my tongue

I am compassionate

But I can offend others

I am educated

But can still react in ignorance

I am reserved

But can still bathe in arrogance

I love myself

But can still avoid my true self

I am a friend until the end

But can still turn by back on someone

I am mature

But can still be unaffected by lessons in age

Who am I?

Much more than what naked eyes can see

I am neither all good nor bad

There are multiple layers

In this image

But you see

Only a small fraction of

What is also known as

A Part of Me

    A very honest portrayal of yourself!

    This is awesome! I admire people who admit there's good and bad within themselves as much as I disdain people who think they're perfect! Very good job!

    Excellent! This describes pretty much everyone. Although, some might not readily admit it. :-)

    Some people cannot admit that there are both positives and negatives about their personalities. Better yet, a ying & yang about themselves. It's good to see that someone is exploring this.
