Who am I-
so quiet and shy?
Wake up,
Go to school,
Repeat.
What does this say about me?
Join a club
or make a friend.
The choice is yours- for it is your time to spend.
I am to the world who I show I am.
For nature I am who I am
In my downs I am not who I am suppose to be.
In my ups I am who I am.
I follow my onw style because,
I don't want to be a robot following others
If you looked for my name on the front of a book,
I don’t think you’d bat an eye,
For my story would be just words on a page,
All meaningless words floating by,
Who wants to be the brightest of them all?
Who wouldn’t want to be?
But existence is an eternal purgatory
Mind like the ocean waves that flow so effortlessly
I am.
I am actions.
I am desires.
I am dreams.
I am thoughts.
I am a fear of stairs.
Ice cold like the Buffalo lake breeze, my heart was born with no such ease. Growing up being alone, not having a family to call my own; So much hate and envy spread amongst us all.
I am art. My body is my canvas, my emotions are my songs, my heart beats the purest melody all dayand all night long. When i dance, I sway to the beat,
"SYA! SYA!# That is what we say
Step, Step that is what we do
We have the rhythm and spirit of sorority to
Because we are family we put it to the test
I ama brilliant thunderstorm of energyand the world may slip through the fingers of othersbut not minefor I refuse to be mutedI will seize the dayrun aheadsail over oceans
I Am, just two simple words. These words carry the weight of the person who is me.
I am someone who makes mistakes.
I am never perfect.
I am never going to do right by everyone.
I am not weak.
{I won’t deny my flaws and insecurities.
I’ve been bruised and broken in places,
used and abused and pushed aside and wasted,
disregarded and shamed,
manipulated and blamed,
I am me because of where I'm from
I am me because of what I've done
I am me because of how I've lived
I am me because of the things I've been apart of
I am me because I'm from a small town
Color me with shades of gold
It will fade and surely show
Cracks and holes that you hid
Imperfections that will always live
Here I am,
Standing upon the front lines,
Braving the harsh winter and the hottest summer.
Here I am,
Walking tall even though I hide among the rest.
Here I am,
Giving advice to anyone who needs it.
Who is me?
Me is as plain as can be
tall with dark brown hair
and the matching eyes if anyone seems to care
quiet and shy
I tend to always be asked why
gifted with a beautiful voice I sing and sing
A silly image of humanity
If two men love ''This it’s bad''
If a girl loves to another is
I am Lonely but strong
sad but happy
throught the years
things happen
mom getting sick
needles and medicines
all around me, wondering why
more and more I wonder why
I may be young, and I may be fifteen. However, I'm not what you think I am.
I'm that someone that others call "weird", I'm that individual that others don't appreciate.
I am a cup of tea on a winters eve
an acquired taste
I am unique and sweet
little clouds of charm and grace
I am the smell of delight
take a deep breathe and breath me in
Who are we? Who are they? Who is she? Who is he? But most importantly who am I?
Everybody yearns to be somebody, to be remembered, but why?
I am a voice,
and that voice has power.
I am someone that can make a change in this world.
