I Am Not... Poem by John F. Bisner Ureña.

I am not
the same man that I was yesterday,
everything negative was left behind
in a sad past that could never exalt
neither love nor happiness,
That I can assure you! ...

I am not
the Being that was born in the past,
today between ups and downs and ups
and downs of the daily tides I try to look
hopefully a better future than
it comes and flies away so fast
like the wind that gently rests on the teachings
that time marked in the thoughts of a young man
of yesteryear who in fragile moments lost a love
and loved one that will never return.

I am not
famous nor beautiful,
nor the human being that I was before,
I am just a loving writer and poet with a
pen full of noble feelings in each free
verse written in black and white on paper,
and that you can believe,
I already grew up
and grow up happy,
I learned to love again
unconditionally,
I am a common and wild being
in a present absent from a yesterday that is no longer,
he vanished on tiptoe and perished with the breeze
bandolier that with the mask of gray shadows was hurrying.

I am not
perfect and to that I do not give mind,
I only live the now minute by minute with
my person and the gift of life,
I found a home and a purpose where
I am not the same as yesterday,
I am my best human version in
the trench of letters that does not
leave for tomorrow what you can write today...,

Writing has always been the best therapy against
my madness,
she saved me from the abyss of dangers,
sadness,
criticism and death,
she taught me to get up,
to dare and believe in myself again,
to enjoy everything once more and never
condition myself for anything or anyone ever,
Whatever happened I would go forward without looking back,
I learned to smile even though inside I was destroyed
suffering from pain and injustices that envious and poisonous
people will cause in my existence,
I forgave and became stronger,
more considerate and kind to my fellow men and my environment because I know that I am not alone in this diverse vineyard...,

I am not
selfish like so many out there,
I am a dream builder who dedicates himself and
builds day by day where many never ever try,
there in the human internal I connect and
I give you my help with pen in hand,
it is there where I am the best friend of the spirit
of your Being.

And that's me! ...
And to that I stamp my signature.
