Who I Am


I am the quotes that I eat up and save for later.

I am the music that moves my body in a rhythm that is all my own.

I am the pictures I take of the world I see.

I am the adventures I go on with friends or alone because adventure till death.

I am the people who laugh at my jokes and smile from across the room.

I am the ocean waves crashing on the shore, the line where the sea meets the sky and the mountains that stand magnificent and strong.

I am all of the places I've visited, from the Pacific to the Atlantic.

 

I am not my race, the color of my hair, the clothes that I wear or my gender.

I am not a label. I am me.
