I Am

An English assignment from some months ago I just scrounged up from the dark corners of my binder. After a little editing, I decided I kind of liked it and so here it is!

"I"

I am...

an artist, creating love with my hands

a dreamer, dragging my toes through the sand.

I am...

a believer, hoping for the best

open, with my heart spilling out of my chest

I am...

an angsty teenager pushing my tears aside

a little kid, imagining that I am Sporty Spice!

I am...

an engineer, a creator of tomorrow

a poet, writing for happiness instead of sorrow.

I am...

a singer who can't carry a tune in a bucket

ready to rip my hair out and just say "F*** it"

I am...

a nerd, the only one in the class to ace the test

a little tired, so I think I'll lay down to rest

I am...

smiling so hard that my cheeks hurt

lamenting all the problems that plague the earth

I am...

trying not to judge, but I'm only human

except for the times when I feel like Superwoman!

I am...

a revolutionary with too-bright eyes

ready to tear off my favorite disguise.

I am...

the greatest thing of all, the best I can be

I am...

the only person I can call 'me.'
