Being Me



Comfortably numb to this world,
Comfortably numb to this place,
Comfortably numb to what surrounds me
And what is in my face.

I dont ask for answers,
I dont feel empty at all,
Just numb to my senses,
That is all.

So please dont bother me with lectures,
Or constant conjectures,
I am happy you see,
Just being me.

Love me for who i am,
Not what i could be,
Because thats what made me,
And thats what sets me free.

Geni Kelepouris

I began writing when i was 16. I enjoy expressing myself through all forms of art ( my profile pic is one of my art pieces). I have had a life full of tragedies and suffer post traumatic stress. I find that art and writing soothes my soul and allows me to heal from all the pain that has been haunting me. I have an obsession with existence and love nothing more than to discuss all the different theories of why we are here. My poems cover a range of topics from love and inspiration to complete random mania. There are also some very deep poems that i needed to write to get the sorrow from my life. I just hope whoever is reading them enjoys them. more…
