I Am Me
I am me
I laugh when it’s funny
I cry when I’m sad
I feel pain when I’m hurt
I am me
I go deeper than the surface
I feel more than a simple touch
I see farther than what the naked eye can see
I believe faith is the key to happiness
And I think forever, instead of spare of the moment
I am me
Brown colored skin, jet black hair, shadow brown eyes, hour glass shape, ditzy crooked smile, ambitious personality and a heart of gold
I am me
Born and raised a Texas flower
Detailed product of my country environment
A small but important piece of God’s glorious creation
I am me
I walk tall
I stand firm
I listen to the beat of my own heart
I follow God’s foot steps
I carry my pride on my face
My motivation is rejection and doubt
My encouragement to move forward is my son
I am me
I am a mother but also a child
I am a teacher but also a student
I am a keeper but also a giver
I am a lover that yearns to be loved
I am me
I look like my mother
I’m unsure like my father
I’m inspired by my sisters
And I fight like my brother
I am me
Bold and beautiful
Wise and understanding
Real and humble
Strong and steady
I am me
I don’t believe in regret
I don’t look backwards
I live for the moment
And I pray for tomorrow
I am me
Some see the surface of me
Others look right over me
Few see the real me
But none will ever intimidate me
Because, I am me…..
