    INFJ

    The rarest personality trait in the U.S. making up 1-3% of the population
    Although very cool, it gets hard to find those who you can truly relate to or be open with
    The quote says, “with great power comes great responsibility,” so off days must bloom even when I feel off
    Quickly collecting myself like “where is my super suit?”
    I have incredible things to do
    My superpower sports a cape of compassion like a brand-new bowtie
    But they can’t see me when I graze the clouds
    Because their mirror gets ignored for parts, they wish to see for themselves in everyone else
    Judgement then gets passed at a surface level, but my mind is only comfortable in the sky
    My secret identity is me, myself, and I
    But they never see passion behind the why
    I’m a pretty good judge of character after about three goodbyes
    I can dissect the parts of your heart that need surgery, the parts that make you cry
    I can feel the shift in your breathing from across the room
    I can tell your mood based on the way you’re walking or talking
    I can stop the bleeding with my words of wisdom
    Words that have traveled around the world and seen multiple lives
    Lives that have ended early, lives that couldn’t find purpose, lives that found love and happiness, lives that weren’t treated fairly, lives that only saw hell or some lucky few only heaven knew
    All these residences a hundred lifetimes could never see
    My intuition breathes on the daily
    It’s exhausting but I’ll never get tired of helping others
    I’m an empath so my path encompasses the needs of others, I’m still learning to acknowledge my own
    I’m observant on a microscopic level so it feels as if I can predict the future when I just notice the behavior patterns most glance over
    The keys are in the details, but no one reads between the lines, people only want the cliff notes
    Well, pull out your pen, I’m going to bring success to you
    1. Love others more than yourself and true love will be attracted to you, you won’t have to keep searching for it only to find pain
    2. Gratitude is the only peace that last longer than self-care or a vacation, stop stressing over the things you can’t control
    3. Fear and Comparison are cousins that shouldn’t be in your family tree, they are poisoning your roots; so, have a conversation with the two and watch how relatable the confidence you thought you never knew begins to bloom
    p.s. my superpower is learning to be a better version of me…

    • I truly love the several metaphors in this piece. One of them being “. Gratitude is the only peace that last longer than self-care or a vacation, stop stressing over the things you can’t control” I have to remind myself daily to not stress over things that I can not control and I honestly find my outcome of my situation turning out to be better than me hounding to try to find a solution to a problem that is greater than me.
      I also liked how you said in the beginning, “but my mind is only comfortable in the sky” this to me resonates in several different ways, such as keeping a level mindset, keeping my head way above the waters, and keeping my mental state high no matter how complicated life gets.
      I can definitely relate to learning to become a better version of myself. I am a working process with that statement! I appreciate you sharing your insight!

      • Yes, thank you for sharing your time in this moment of poetry with me. Keep striving for great things and a greater mindset will senselessly become the norm. And one day you’ll notice the growth and appreciate the hard times. The hurdles are only high when you need to jump, the fall is only scary when you don’t practice how to fail, and winning doesn’t help if you don’t work for it. Enjoy the process life gives even when you want something different 🌹

    • This is amazing. I felt so connected while reading.” I’m a pretty good judge of character after about three goodbyes
      I can dissect the parts of your heart that need surgery, the parts that make you cry” 🌹🔥
