melt:ing--pot

In a land of sand and dunes, I live
in a box of glass and steel
A glittery shiny life, I lead
crossed legs on a chair on wheels
To the front I walk on a carpet red
I smile, I wave, I greet
For I have been the greatest actress of all
oh the spotlights I did steal.

***

I'm a perfect being.
No. I'm *the* perfect being.
In fact, I'm so perfect, perfection is jealous.

I make no mistakes. I have no flaws.
I do the things the way they should be done. Or shouldn't be done.
I know everything.
I have an interpretation for everything, reasons for everything, and solutions for everything.
I have wisdom beyond belief and I possess access to everyone's minds.
When I talk, I talk directly to your soul, your body, your mind. All at the same time.
I make so much sense, I make you wonder if you have any of your own.
I make things look so much different, so much easier, so much simpler, it makes you question why on earth you haven't thought about things this way before.
I'm charismatic, and enigmatic and a drum-roll in everyone's lives.
If you know me, you'll never imagine your life again without me.
I'm strong, brave and have the courage to face it all. And by letting you know that, in return, you become strong, brave and have the courage to face it all.
I'm caring, loving and a best friend.
If you have me, you don't need anyone else. I make your life perfect, like I am.
I'm the missing piece to all people's life puzzles. If you find me, you've just successfully completed your life's picture.

I'm a perfect being.
No. I'm *the* perfect being.
In fact, I'm so perfect, perfection is jealous.

On shattered pieces of what's called earth
I hop, I land, I fly
Leaving behind shreds that have once been
a part of a life pass'n' by
Confusion of the fusion of
all scattered pieces, I
have lost the wild wild battle of
not living in a twisted lie.

***

I am nothing.
No. I am *the* nothing.
In fact, I'm so much of a nothing, nothing is jealous.

I have no dreams, no wishes, no plans of my own.
I walk through life because I have to. And I flow with the mainstream because I have to.
I stop when they tell me to stop. And I don't stop when they don't tell me to stop.
I am no one. If you pass me by, you wouldn't look twice.
I occupy space, making the world just a little bit tighter for everyone.
I breathe in air that probably someone else deserves more.
Beyond that, I have no existence. I'm off the records of human kind's history.
I am a lack.
I lack life, I lack emotions and I lack actions.
I have none. No mind, no heart, no soul, no body.
I'm the mistake of a world, oh so perfect.
I'm the flaw. I'm the error.
I'm the hole.

I am nothing.
No. I am *the* nothing.
In fact, I'm so much of a nothing, nothing is jealous.

***

With teary eyes, a bowed head and heart
I put my palms together, I kneel
I plea guilty in the courts of life and I
beg forgiveness of all of thee
I have cheated, betrayed, mistaken and
let down because I'm Me.

***

I don't know who I am.
Somewhere along the lines of life in the fast lane, I lost track of the person I am.
I know who I used to be.
I know who I wanna be.
But I have no idea who I am.
I don't know how it happened. I was always so careful.
I make a plan, I follow the plan.
and now the plan fucked me up.

I don't know who I am.
But I plan to introduce us.
