I Am...More
So you want to know "who I am?"
Well who I am, is more.
It cannot be summed up in adjectives and traits.
Who I am deeper than that.
I am MORE.
I am MORE than the color of my hair, or the freckles across my nose.
I am MORE than the color of my eyes, or my crooked smile.
I am MORE than you see.
I am MORE than the number I see on the scale.
I am MORE than the names that they yell.
I am MORE than what they see.
I am MORE than my past experiences.
I am MORE than the girl who "lost her dad."
I am MORE than what you know.
I am MORE than the sadness that plagues me.
I am MORE than the anxiety that overwhelms me.
I am MORE than this disease.
I am MORE than I know.
I am MORE than I see.
What I am, I am not certain of.
But I am certain of this one thing.
I. AM. MORE.
