Who I Am Today

Who I am today is a man. I am not how I was when I closed my eyes, and yet I am who I was. I am still Yeet Lovema. I am still me.   Who I am today is someone whose heart changes, yet whose heart is always true. This can be the case when my body changes too.   Who I am today is who I want to be. My mind and heart give the answer, then my body does the rest.   Who I am today is a Changeling, shifting faces, shifting bodies, but that doesn't make my truth any more a lie. Who I am is the same.   Who I am today is someone who can walk the streets and know that no one person that I pass knows I do not look the same as yesterday.   Who I am today is someone who the barista at the local coffee shop, smiling back at me, greets with hello. Same as all the rest.   Who I am today is someone whose exterior shines like the gilded streets of Camor. Like the sun itself. Proud in its beams.   Who I am today is someone who looks to their reflection in the gold and nods. I am myself.   Who I am today is someone who goes to bed early, when the sun is tucked behind the clouds but not set. Oh sun, I am not set either.   Who I am today is someone who wakes up with a different feeling.  
Yeet Lovema by Jarhed
Who I am today is not a man.   Who I am today is not a woman.   Who I am today is not the binary of the spectrum some believe is all there is.   Who I am today is someone who could break new ground.   Who I am today is someone who could start a riot.   Who I am today is someone who could sit at home and do nothing.   Who I am today is someone who could get a coffee, same as yesterday.   Who I am today, however, is still me.   Who I am today is Yeet Lovema. I have not changed my heart. I have only changed my body. But that body is still me.
