Pieces
Filipino.
Korean.
American.
Daughter.
Sister.
Student.
Athlete.
Artist.
Musician.
These are all a pieces of who I am
They are the pieces of a puzzle,
Nine pieces out of hundreds.
There are pieces that I wish for fate to give me:
Wife.
Mother.
There are others that I know I must work hard for:
Graduate.
Medical Student.
Doctor.
There are some which require bravery:
Doctor without Borders.
Public Speaker.
And others which demand kindness:
Charity Contributor.
Best Friend.
These pieces and more are everything I am and everything I want to be.
They are what make me, me.
This poem is about:
Me
My family
My community
My country
Our world
