I Am What I Say I Am

I was the weird kid in elemetary school.

I was a designated wall flower in everything.

I was quiet and a social pariah.

I was someone who wanted to be a someone.

So, I made that a goal and changed one thing every year until I was who I wanted to be

Now, I am a more defined version of who i was

Now, I am the weird kid in college who rides a push scooter

Now, I am the rose with thorns and beautiful petals

Now, I am the man who makes the plans

Now, I am someone I always knew I was 

I am Akeem.
