I am…Me


I am driven and spontaneous

But I am also careful and cautious.

I am a sister and daughter

But I am also my own person.

I am ambitious and free

But sheltered and protected.

I am a hopeless romantic

But an eternal realist.

I do not fear life, nor do I turn down a challenge

But fear death because it is the end.

I am optimistic for what life has to offer

But scared to accept change.

I change my mind as frequent as I change my clothes

But I am also a loyal friend who will be there until the end.

I am demanding and precise

But I will do anything for those that I love.

I am all of these things

And what makes me different from everyone else is

I am me.
