I Am


I am my own person

someone with an opinion,

a person with feelings,

a person with dreams.

 

I am unique in my own ways

different from friends and family,

but similar in many ways.

 

I am myself,

weird and shy,

reader and listener,

I am just me.

 

I am different in

music taste

height

weight

thoughts

actions

goals

dreams.

 

I am different in my own ways.

I am proud to be me

I am proud to be unique.

 

I would rather be me

then someone I am not.

Being myself is great

no matter what others think.

 

Be who you are

not who society wants you to be.

Be real

not fake.

Be 100% you.

 

I am myself

not a different person.

It does not matter what people think of me

only what I think of myself.

The only opinion that matters,

is yours,

not your families or friends.
