Who am I?I am


Who am I?

I am the nerd. 

I am the player that gets picked last. 

I am the pretty girl with no guys. 

I am the forgotten name. 

I am who everyone says to stay away from. 

I am the girl who gets made fun of. 

I am the girl who crys at night,

Due to your rude remarks.  

 

No, No. 

That is not me. 

I am laughter when you feel like crying. 

I am reading books by a fire.

I am riding my horse every chance I get.

I am my favorite songs when they're needed most. 

I am your best friend, 

or your worst enemy. 

I am a thousand things,

But all you see is the million things I am not. 

I am not where I have been,

I am where I'm going, 

And I can't wait to get there.
