They ask who are you?
I am who I was I reply, I am who I am and will be who I want.
Nay they say, not that.
I am who I was I reply, I am who I am and will be who I want.
Nay they say, not that.
They ask what are you?
Human I reply, a dreamer and a believer.
Nay they say, not that.
They ask what do you believe?
In revelation, in rationality I reply, in humanity and in me.
Nay they say, not that.
They give me names, tag me with labels as if I were a blogpost and categorise me like a file of notes on the pile. Maybe they are right. Maybe they can see that which I cannot.

If you remember reading my post in which I explained 7 unknown facts about me, you may recall the last one was:
- I absolutely, very muchly, totally
hatedespise writing about myself. I just don’t know where to start really or what to say. Ummm...
Here is what a few of my friends had to say about me:
- "You're from a whole other world, a different dimension. You open my eyes and I'm ready to go. Lead me into the light." - Guest Post by The General.
- "Hey there Delilah don't you worry about the distance, I'm right there if you get lonely, give this song another listen. Close your eyes, listen to my voice that's my disguise, I'm by your side." - Guest Post by Max.
- "Friendly. A person people like to talk to and stay with because he is a source of joy and happiness to them." - Rosaline.
- "A handsome, hot, nice guy who plays football (soccer) and doesn't do his homework" - Rosaline.
- "Nas is a delightful creature of the male variety and is limited edition. He resides in a shell in London somewhere (don't want to disclose exact co-ordinates!) & likes to whoo girls in his spare time - hence the reason for procrastination! Just like his wonderful mother, he also has inherited an OCD (obsessive cleaning disorder). This is quite rare of the male species. Nas has two sisters and a brother who shares room with him and he affectionately calls them "his bachay". He has a picture of his little child on his lap & its very cute! His favourite colours are Manchester United team red, black & purple. He secretly wants a pet snake. Nas has never eaten shell food! He has a diary hidden behind textbooks and he's convinced that this is an adequate hiding place!" - Pink (you told them all my secrets!).
