The Inner Me Poem by Chris Clingman

The Inner Me

Rating: 4.5


I am a boy filled with passion.
I wonder why people mock me.
I hear the insults those people say.
I see their tortured soul inside.
I want to help them out.
I am a boy filled with passion.

I pretend to be a tough guy.
I feel acting like that is dumb.
I touch the heart of those in need.
I worry I will fall for the devil’s tricks.
I cry when those I love are hurt.
I am a boy filled with passion.

I understand why my parents punish me.
I say I hate them at times.
I dream to be in a kitchen cooking up a storm.
I try to block out the world when I am cooking.
I hope my dream comes true.
I am a boy filled with passion.

You be whoever you are and don't take any glibs from anyone who tells you different. If you want to be in a kitchen cookng, then you be that cook. If you want to show the world how tender and caring your heart is, then by all means be that friend. We women don't have the cooking and caring thing all sewed up just for us to do, men can cook and care too. You have bared your soul for us to see and I see a very tender and caring soul in you. So you just go right ahead and be whoever you want to be. A 10+++++ and thank you so much for sharing this tender and caring look into your soul. Love & hugs, Barbara
