I'm not a poet
I'm hardly even a word-er
But I'm a master pretender.


I've been a lesbian.

Let it sink in.

I've been a prostitute and a smoker and a drug dealer.

The biggest revealer.

I've even been a boy, in once upon a times.

I have been young, I have been old,
I have been dead, my stories told.

I have been a witch, a vampire, a werewolf, all in one.
A mermaid, and a damsel, and a dragon, but I'm not done.

I've gone on spacewalks, and cave explorations.

I've been to Ireland, the moon, and distant galaxies.

I've seen love, hate, car crashes, and bombs
And I have given birth to an evil son.

I have been all these people, and no one.

But I have never been myself
Cami wrote a poem, see? :P
It's about things, right? :P

Do you get it?

(And psh, would you notice my awesome rhyming scheme? I'm a genius.)

That is an awesome rhyming scheme.

The poem has a really good flow, I like the subject matter and I am rather fond of your concluding line.
