This Is Me

January 7, 2015

I'm more than I dreamed I would become,

I'm not what everyone expects of me,

I'm not shallow and I'm not fake,

I'm more real than I thought I'd be.

I'm a lover not a fighter,

But I'll fight hard for love,

I'm a believer and a dreamer,

A better world is what I dream of.

I can pretend and I can lie,

But I choose to be a good person,

I can push myself to great limits,

And I won't turn and run.

I can move on from pain,

I can grow from tragedy,

I am willing to give my life,

For those I call my family.
