Personality Tests
I'm supposed to be a fearful avoidant
disorganised emotionally
but a 67 on conscientiousness, methodical and dutiful
77 extraversion and an ENJF-T
Almost a 100 on openness
a true cusp of Capricorn and Aquarius
Yet an expert at hiding my insecurities
But somehow always wearing my heart on my sleeve
Part time people pleaser with an 83 on Agreeableness
Still brutally honest with my closed ones
sometimes too much for my own good
Clumsy but articulate, 71 on the neuroticism
A list of wounds and scabs every new day
An empathetic idealist
but flexible enough to have a debate
and change my mind, when solid evidence comes by
So many ways to know yourself
and yet I sit here
Baffled at how unaware I am of my own feelings
Craving logic because it doesn't come naturally to my lover girl heart
I relentlessly psychoanalyse myself till I collapse of exhaustion
Yet when it comes to decisions I go by 74% feeling
Equal parts general anxiety and c-ptsd with an invisible layer of lifelong grief
See my colourful eye liner or hair and you might think I have a sunny personality
Yet, I love myself a good cry - I could silently go on for hours
I'm 86% turbulent after all
Isolate for weeks, without any/many noticing
I am supposed to have an 86 on judgement
Yet when it comes to being careful of falling,
I do it time and time again
as if the wounds are not seething with enough pain already
82% Intuitive, my predictions are almost never wrongI can pretend to have a good time and have you convinced,
Read you like the back of my hand
and still fixate on your little quirks
make you mysterious all in my own head
I'm hot and cold, most days I won't tell you why
But if I like you, you're probably the same as me
I'm terrified of being forgotten and alone
Still always yearning for affection and trying to win you over
Irrationally thought I would die at 17
Yet here I am, sometimes unsure if I deserve to be
This is just the first blueprint of many to come
Lately I have been trying to meet myself again
But I guess even with your own self, it is often a chance encounter
a happenstance only occurring a few times, a lifetime
even with a gazillion personality tests
it could never be enough to know me/you
