a simple complexity

[gcute82]

Yes, it is me
Guilty as charged,
I said it,
I asked it,
I provoked it.

I am not an object,
I am not a sterotype,
I am not a game that is played,
Or am I ?

I walk the steps
And spit out the words needed,
So how can I claim the innocence
That I wish so longingly for?

I am two persons rolled in one,
A paradox and a simple contrast.
I am what you think I am
And what you think I am not.

I can think the words
But never say them
For I am not ready to shed the skin
I think I am wrapped in.
