One Word?


One word to describe me?

How can I choose?

There is not one word

To describe who I am.

Why must the world be so limiting?

Why must I choose?

Why be held back

By a single label?

I can be so much more,

I have so much potential!

I am so many things.

I am a dreamer. I am a believer.

I am a thinker. I am a doer.

I am a warrior. I am a sister.

I am a daughter. I am a friend.

I am strong. I am fearless.

I am able. I am loving.

I am caring.

The list goes on and on

And each day it grows.

Why be limiting?

Why be close-minded?

Why should I only be one thing?

I can be anything and everything my heart desires!
