I Am

I am a mirror.
Doing all I can to reflect the people around me.
Doing everything possible to fit in and be the same.

I am an unfinished work of art.
I continue to be shaped each day.
Mistakes are made, but in the end, I will be a wonderfully unique masterpiece.

I am a book. 
I have stories to tell.
I have thoughts to share.
I bring people into my little world where everything is good.

I am a spider.
Slinking around in the background,
Sometimes unnoticed.
Often tuned out.
Some people dislike me, but I am strengthened by the ones who appreciate me and let me be myself.
