Please ...
Do not think to know me
Do not think to mark me
Do not think to peg me
Please ...Do not think to reshape me
Do not think to judge me
Do not think to reel me in
Or limit me when I feel need to grow
Why not?
When it comes to me ...
I mark myself
I peg myself
I reshape myself
I deepen self perceptions in need of changing
I identify vulnerabilities in need of strengthening
I expand comfort zones that pinch painfully if
I remain stuck on a narrow-minded mental track, and
I am my own judge and jury when the verdict, concerning
Necessary changes, comes in
Why doth all of the above be true?
I know myself to be 'reelly' complex, so once
Subconscious reason for circling round and
Round the same mental track, where
I get nowhere fast, tunnels through another layer of
Emotional confusion, I come to understand
Reactions that had seemed to make no sense, and
With clarity in hand my newly relaxed state of
Inner peace, feeling enhanced, frees
My corny sense of humor to frolic playfully with you
So—since I work to know myself in depth and
If you 'reely' hope to connect meaningfully with me
Then please don't try to keep score ...Because ...
How can you think to reely know a person whose
Expansive state of mind is forever questing toward
Knowing where she needs to grow, next?
And how can you think to see any woman, man, child—
Clearly—when your defense system, like mine, is
Preprogrammed to protect deeply injured parts of our minds?
And if you think to ask: Who is Annie, who chooses to
Work consciously at self transformation from
Feeling invisible as a preteen toward developing into
A woman who decides which personal trait is in need of
Acknowledging and baring in full view, today, I'd reply:
I am both unique
And Every Woman
I am Every Person
And though I remain
A compassionate, self disciplined soul ...
Please make no mistake ...
Tis wise to keep ear muffs handy, because ...
One day, you shall surely
Hear me roar for this reason:
I need to feel free to expand my comfort zones so as
To be true to the real me, straight down into
The epicenter of my core
So please, do not think to reel me in
Do not think to know me
Do not think to mark me
Do not think to peg me
Please ...Do not think to reshape me
Do not think to judge me
Do not think to reel me in
Or limit me when I feel need to grow
Why not?
