What am I?

I am a walking mass of muscle and bone, skin and teeth, hair and nails

I am a compilation of emotions, thoughts, and memories

I am a soul, a spirit, a person

I am More. 

I am more than a single word or phrase

I am more than the number sewn into my jeans

I am more than the length of my hair or the whiteness of my teeth

I am more than the opinions of those who do not know me but still seek to judge me

I am more than the makeup on my face and the polish on my fingers

I am more than the mold of beauty that society so desperately tries to push me into

I am more than my past and the places that I have been

So if I am more than these things

What am I?

I am intelligent

and witty

and flawed

and loving

and strong

and determined

and beautiful

I am healthy and able and happy with myself

I am unique and indescribable and like no other

I am ideas and visions and aspirations

I am irate, I am  bitter, I am lively, I am content

I am a collection everything I have ever expirenced and everything I have yet to experience 

I am a work of art, a mix of colors and feelings

I am priceless

I am irreplaceable

I am More.
