I am


I am a daughter.

I am a sister.

I am a student.

I am a hipster.

 

I am driven.

I am studious.

I am understanding.

I am ambitious.

 

I did not know who I was

It took me quite a while

to figure out for myself

that I am worthwhile.

 

I can now say the following things with great certainty:

 

I am me.

I am perfectly me.

I can only be me.

and I will always be me.

 

I am who I am.

I am perfectly flawed.

and to that I can say,

I am awed.

 

So I ask, who are you?
