What I Have Done

No one can ever be entirely sure as to what all I´ve done.

Even I myself am not certain.

I don't tell everything,

Nor do I show it all.

Some know more of my dark side,

Others more of my light.

Some things I wear like a cape,

While others I hide in my lockbox.

I am not proud of it all,

But I am not ashamed of it all either.

Those that underestimate me will never truly know the extremities that

I will go to to save myself.

I work to help myself. So what?

I can be kind, but I pick and choose.

I am also a bit selfish, and I

Might as well admit it now.

But I am also ambitious and

I am determined as well.

I will get what I need.

I may not win immediately,

But I will eventually.

That is my mindset.

I am not a princess. I am a queen.

I won't sit back and wait for a king.

I will be busy with my kingdom until he arrives.

I have done bad things,

Everyone has.

They are a part of me that can never be erased.

But it is not all that I am.

I may not be a hero,

But I am strong willed.

I will not stand for anything I disagree with.

I will put my heel down on the unjust eels´ tail.

If it does not align with my own beliefs,

I will trample it mercilessly with no remorse.

My sense of justice is unflinching and

I will not have others push me around.

My mistakes do not define me,

But my actions and thoughts are a part of me.

Permanently.
