I Am Undefined


I am not what you think of me

Honestly, I've grown to understand that it doesn't matter what you think of me

I am not what you want me to be

Truthfully, it's too much work trying to be what you want me to be

I am not who society says I should be

Frankly, I am exhausted trying to keep up with what society defines as acceptable

Me.....

I am undefined

Undefined because I've freed myself from trying to be everything to everyone

I am undefined

Undefined because I am like a blank canvas, waiting for the artist to raise his brush and bring color and life to vision

I am undefined

Undefined because I am free to change my mind about who I want to be 

I am undefined

Undefined because I refuse to follow the "norm" and be placed in a box and striped of my creativity

I am undefined

Undefined because I am like the ocean that has infinite waves; I flow freely with wide boundaries

I am undefined

Undefined because I challenge myself to be different.  

For me, being different makes me extraordinary, unlike any other, which allows me to set my own path and identify with those things that make me happy.

Me.....

That's why I'm undefined.
