Notes About The Poem

I Am Me

The way I love my girl, how we just relax and hang out,
How her and I make a perfect “we”.
She turns me on, I love she accepts what I am,
Because, at the end of each day, I am me.

The way I talk, my attitude, ethics and morals,
How I think fair is important, it’s all my personality.
I think people should be cared for and loved, then,
When I look in the mirror, I see that I am me.

I own my aspirations for success, redefining what that is,
I own my habit, my lifetime hobby.
To own our own achievements, our growing self is important,
I own mine knowing that I am me.

It’s important for me to dress unique, to mark that I am proud, 
That my will and desire is free.
Because I want folks to know the things I value and rate are
Important and folks know that I am me.

Nice write! Tones of proclamation - defining yourself. BTW - Still a bit new to the Soup and wanted to see what went wrong. I thought I posted a poem in your That's Why I Love contest only to find that the submission seemed to disappear at the closure. The poem is good whether it deserved a win or not but I didn't see a NA. It is like it was never entered. Enjoyed the topic - Jesse

Hey Jesse. I went thru but have not seen ur write at all. As soon as it hit 35 I closed it. I read ur write, very nice and different to the others, I'd have put probs equal 3rd. U may have just missed. I marked it 10 hours ago. I'm in Australia.
