I Am... the One


I am the one with a heart that constantly shatters, with the love for all but the love is never returned.

I am the one who loves my enemy and my best friend the same.

I am the one who is concerned about others more than I’m concerned about myself.

I am the one who can’t seem to tell people how I really feel.

I am the one so insecure about myself, yet everyone thinks that I’m outgoing.

I am the one that will breakdown every night, but I refuse to cry during the day.

I am the one that feels sorry for everyone and listens to their problems but never sharing mine.

But…

I AM THE ONE WHO WILL STIKE MY OWN PATH AND LIVE MY OWN LIFE!

I AM THE ONE WHO WILL LOVE MY SELF WHEN OTHERS WON’T!

I AM THE ONE THAT WILL PICK MYSELF UP WHEN OTHERS KNOCK ME DOWN!

I AM THE ONE THAT WILL KEEP MY HEAD UP HIGH WHEN I AM SAD!

I AM BROKEN BUT I WILL PUT MY SELF TOGETHER AND KEEP MOVING!

I am here!

I am alive!

There may be obstacles, but I will overcome because I am the one.
