I can confirm I am not a Robot.
I have a heart and soul that is real.
I melt when I feel anguish,
and when I feel joyous, I do squeal.
I can confirm that I am vulnerable.
I have a mind that works overtime.
Over thinking is my enemy –
worrying about the next mountain to climb.
I can confirm that I am a reclusive.
Privacy, the order of the day.
Preferring to remain uncontactable.
My hopes and fears, not to give away.
I can confirm I am not a robot.
Whatever a robot may be?
Technical terms not my forte.
Pen and parchment favoured by me.
I can confirm my sense of loyalty.
As a friend, you have my trust.
I exist on a gluten-free diet,
though could kill for a proper buttered crust.
I can confirm that I am eccentric.
Normality never was for me.
My rationale somewhat daunting,
to those not blessed with a will to be free.
I can confirm I am not a robot.
If you pinch me, I’ll pinch you back.
Too soft have I been for most of my life,
but with age comes the counter attack.
I can confirm my thinking not logical,
to those with a different I Q.
But inside everyone lies alacrity,
that shoots from the hip and says BOO !
I can confirm I am blessed with madness.
Too long in the tooth to be tamed.
So this is me – take me or leave me.
Life is too short to sit feeling ashamed.
