I am Me


I am me

I am....

A sister, depended on and strong, caring for a brother who can't do as much as she.

I am....

A student, fighting for my future; a wrong turn here and there, but trying to make it somewhere.

I am....

A daughter, trying to break away, to show that I can make it on my own someday.

I am...

A worker, flipping burgers, frying fries, collecting pennies just to survive.

I am...

A person, one of many, scrapping by, doing my time, living my life.

I am...

Me, brown hair, hazel eyes, loves to read and write.

And noboy else can be.
