I am
My name Jakeel Harris and I like to think I'm kind of a poet
I love skittles and Im quite the talker
I also love to answer questions so
If you ask me what i want to be in life I'll tell you Happy
If you asked me my race I'd tell you human or maybe I'd tell you I dont run
if someone asks me where I am from I would probably say humanity
And if you ask me to describe myself I'd simply say im completely insane with a splash of intelligence covered in the fear of my own insecurities
I'd also say im hilarious because funny doesn't even begin to explain my humor
Im also kind of a poet but i don't know what type of poet
Sometimes i feel like im a love poet
I often find myself writing about how my heart has PTSD from the countless battles he's been through protecting the thought of finding my dream girl
And that love must be painful because I wake up everyday with migraines from the thumping of thoughts of my dreamgirl calling my name
Other times i feel like im a social reformist and i use poetry as a way to explain my opinions like how we are so quick to judge based off of social stereotypes that cause barriers between people who are not so different from each other
And how we sometimes follow these unnecessary limitations that we didn't create in the first place that prevents us from having stable relationships
Why is it that we try to continuously follow these guidelines when they don't even lead to temporary happiness
Sometimes we should probably stop looking at people for what you might think they are and just enjoy what you see
Maybe I'm a poet that reluctantly talks about experiences like the memories of feeling your uncle stone fists crashing unto your face like 30 cars on a one way intersection
Or the time where you felt so lonely that your self-esteem and confidence committed suicide inside of your mind
I think I might be the poet that talks about them self in the negative
Like how I feel like everyone sees my flaws as if they were tattooed on my skin
Maybe Im just clueless on the type of poet I am
But I can tell you what type of poet I want to be
I want to be the poet who inspires. The poet that shows people that hope isn't just a 4-letter word used to describe change that we desire to happen
I want to be able to type my name and google and the word speaks pops up
Because im the poet who's learned to give not because i have alot, but because i know exactly how it feels to have nothing.
I don't know what type of poet I am but ill let you know when I figure it out
