A Mix of Many Things

by Alyssa Murray

I am a mix of many things, I can't quite be defined
Not the same, specifically, as anyone you'll find
It's not that I am something special, in comparison to you,
Because you also are a mix of things that make up you

I simply see that most of me is made of certain things
That make me see the need to be upfront in what this brings
I acknowledge the mix of many things that culminate in me
the things I see and think and feel that make me be

I have my faults, my weaknesses, and insecurities
but my being also encompasses other things than these
I have strengths and talents, and some wisdom that is sound
and many of my experiences have been enlightening and profound

In everything that makes me be, it's quite a hearty mix
there's things I love about myself, and things I try to fix
Reflecting on uniqueness, I hand the mirror to you,
to celebrate the many things that make you unique too

I am a mix of many things, I can't quite be defined
Not the same, specifically, as anyone you'll find
It's not that I am something special, in comparison to you,
Because you also are a mix of things that make up you
