I'm Unique


I’m unique.

There is no one quite like me.

 

I’m a combination of memories,

Experiences,

Goals,

& dreams.

 

I’m not perfect,

I’m far from it.

But that’s okay.

 

I don’t have the fanciest stuff,

The most amazing life,

The perfect body,

Or the most money.

 

Instead I have me,

My family,

My friends.

 

& who am I?

 

I’m awkward,

Bubbly,

Shy,

& quirky.

 

I enjoy math,

Drawing,

Hanging with friends

& being creative in the kitchen.

 

I get anxious easily,

Overthink often,

& am not always the best with words.

 

But I’m still loved

& I still love me.

 

Can I ever be perfect?

In my opinion, I can be.

 

I can be perfect...

Perfect at being me.

 

Because ya know what?

I'm not perfect.

I makes mistakes.

I struggle.

 

I don’t need to be ‘perfect’ in the eyes of others,

I just need to be perfect,

perfect at being me.

 

I’m human,

But I’m not just a human.

 

I’m a combination of memories,

Experiences,

Goals,

& dreams.

 

I’m unique

& there is no one quite like me.
