Who I Am


I am Marissa

There’s no one I rather be

I am a twin

Being Baby B
I am tall
For being a girl
My hair is naturally brown
But I mixed it with red
It falls past my shoulders in waves
My friends call it my lioness mane
My eyes are blue
Sometimes being light or dark

Like the depths of the sea
I am kindhearted
Some say that I care too much
But my heart is big
I am patient
I can listen to problems and stories
Hopefully taking away their worries

Because I’ve been through pain

And I don’t want them

To go through the same things
I try hard in everything I do

Because I want the best

Not just for me, but for everyone

I am human

I can be hateful and mean

Everyone has those days
But I am a friend

I will always be there for you
I am forgetful
Remembering the silly things

There’s no one I rather be

I am Marissa

And I am me
