Allow Me to Introduce Myself
Beautifully chaotic, slightly dramatic, suspicious by habit, and probably watching a crime documentary right now.

I’d say I’m an enigma, but that’s too cliché,
so let’s just call me a beautiful contradiction.
A little too loud for the quiet rooms,
a little too quiet for the loud ones.
I trip over my own thoughts,
gasps dramatically at nothing at all,
speak in movie quotes like it’s a second language,
have a concerning knowledge of crime documentaries—
(if I ever disappear, check my last Google search.)
and finds humor in places it probably shouldn’t be.
(Therapy is expensive—laughter is free.)
I fall in love like I’ve never been hurt,
but hold grudges like they pay my rent.
I’m an extrovert who vanishes like a cryptid when overwhelmed
a people pleaser who secretly hopes people cancel plans
I romanticize my life one day,
then question my entire existence the next.
Growth? Oh, I’m working on it.
(Procrastination is part of the process, okay?)
I am contradictions stitched together,
a little chaos, a little charm.
But if you’re here, reading this,
welcome—
it means you might be a little like me.
And that?
That makes you dangerous.
(But in, like a fun way.)
If you relate to even half of this, congrats—we’re now emotionally bonded. Stick around for more of my existential musings, dramatic storytelling, and unsolicited conspiracy theories.
