I Am... ME


Who do you want to be? they asked.

What do you want to be remembered as? they questioned.

Why do I have to be someone or something? I have to ask.

I am... me.

It does not matter who they say I am.

I am who I need to be.

I am... me.

I should not worry of what others think.

I do not need them to decide.

I am... me

I decide who I am.

I decide what I want to be.

I decide what I will be rememberes as.

I am... me.
