Things I always carry with me

 

Be it on my own, or on a fun spree
there are things I always carry with me.

My arrogance
my brilliance
my annoyance
my buoyance
my joys
and sorrows
hurrying and scurrying
like there are no tomorrows.
My passion, sometimes alienating
high spirits, sometimes dominating
humour, sometimes irritating
my kindness, sometimes  suffocating.

No matter how different I try to be
what I carry with me always, is ME.
I keep tripping and tumbling out of my bag
for  you, me and others, to see.
