I Am

I am one of many things

Not one more than the other

I have many defining characteristics

And I get every last one from my mother

I am a more experienced sister

Trying to instruct him wrong from right

I am a deidicated, underestimated winner

Trying to inspire her fight

I am a companian when they need me

Trying to distribute the best advice

I am a poet with many words

Trying to keep my writing concise

I am a shadow of our ancestors

Trying to abide by the declaration

I am a small part of our schooling system

Trying to further my education

I am the daughter of two seperated lovers

Trying to live up to both of their expectations

I am a constant, guilty wrongdoer

Trying to pray over every sin

I am a 17-year-old girl

Trying to improve future generations

I am a complicated individual

Trying to be confindent in my imperfections

I am just a girl

Who laughs, who cries, who lives

And I am only a girl

Trying to figure out who she is
