divided

i am a girl divided

i am a girl with a sky high stiletto in one world 

and a frye boot in another 

in one world 

i am stylish and polished

i am made-up and manicured, painted and plucked

i manage, i direct, i delegate and create

i think about security and the norm

what happens next week and next year

i debate newt or romney

benjamin moore vs valspar

....i am successful

in another world

i am casual and uninhibited

i am natural and relaxed, wild and free

 i work with people and the planet with hearts and with souls

i  wander the world, sleep in strange places

i think about freedom and moments 

and raising our babies on boats

....i am different

in one world

my home is surround sound and granite

breakable and fresh

in another

its rough and tumble

and dirty footprints

its open windows and salty breezes

at times i feel i'm cheating on myself

i'm just not positive 

which me i'm actually cheating on

and so i wonder....

 if one world will eventually become more comfortable than the other

or 

if i learn to embrace each of the me's 

... i can truly find a way.... 

to have the best of both worlds
