I Am Unequalled


I am no powerful leader, 

I am no popular socialist,

I am no generous philanthropist.

 

I am only a whisper,

I am only a shadow,

I am only an egoist. 

 

To others I am only another flaw,

To others I am only another female,

To others I am only another error. 

 

But to me I am ideal,

But to me I am unique,

But to me I am my own individual. 

 

 I am not defined by the sport I play,

 I am not defined by the God I believe in,

 I am not defined by the culture I come from,

 

 I am defined by the way I express love,

 I am defined by the way I express my thoughts,

 I am defined by the way I treat others. 

 

Society may brand me, 

But no one can label me,

For I am who I am.
