Personality update

entry picture

So far the mind has been just fine,

 

So bizarre that it took so much time,

 

So it seems as if I am beyond the ryme,

 

So far away from the crime. 

 

Backed away from the dystopian future,

 

Made my way back alive from the suture,

 

I can't fly but my cape sure is super,

 

As a winner I miss certain parts of the loser. 

 

It took so much more than alot of me,

 

To start living life and do it properly,

 

My portfolio builds as I build more properties,

 

But the demon inside has not forgotten me. 

 

The smile I wear is my armour,

 

No longer apart of the lies or the drama,

 

Peace of mind is now my karma,

 

Small in statue still but I'm larger.
