Who Am I...


Who Am I?

That is a question many have asked.

Little did I know that discovering the answer to this

Was going to be quiet the task...

The answer should be quite simple

But as simple as it should've been I really wish I knew

the answer to the question that was asking

How you define 'you'

Is it the words I speak

Or is it my actions that define me

Or is it my smile, and color of my eyes

My awkwardness or short height

There were a times where I felt like I didn't know myself,

Struggling just to find the real me

To bring forth the girl who was deep inside

Confused, lost, and unable to see

I am a girl who wishes she had

The confidence to speak her mind, 

But yet hides behind her walls of insecurity

I wish I were creative and smart

But yet I am self conscious and afraid to believe in myself 

A person who takes everything to heart

Sometimes I wish I could just go away

Off somewhere to a distant place

A place where my thoughts

Can just run wild and for a while

My mind and heart are free

And in this place I can just be me

Well more like the person I wish I could be in my day dreams

In my day dreams

I am fearless

I am strong 

I am creative

I am innovative

I am smart

I speak my mind

The girl in my day dreams is who I've always strived to be like

And one day I will be like her

I will be that fearless innovative girl

I will be that girl who speaks her mind and is strong

I won't be shy and hide behind my walls of insecurity

She is who I want to be and I will make this my reality

Because the girl in my day dreams

Is me.
