I Am
Location
I wonder if there is anyone out there like me
I hear a group of people behind me, laughing amongst each other
I see the popular kids in front of me, putting down the outcasts
I want to actually belong to a group
I am lost and alone
I pretend to be someone I'm not
I feel like I'm lying to myself
I touch my heart and wonder if I'm making the right choices
I worry that I've gone too far
I cry about the fact that I am no longer who I once was
I am different and fake
I understand now that you can't fit in everywhere
I say "Who needs to be like everyone else when your true self is beautiful."
I dream of empowering other kids to stand up and love themselves for who they are!
I try to talk to everyone and make them feel agape love and self worth
I hope that one day I will truly make a difference
I am strong and independent
