I Am Who I Am

I am a hat, 
that sits upon the sea.
When it flows by, 
it gets along with me.
We flow by a ship, 
we pass by a boat.
Me and the sea, 
it will let me float.
I am a bubble,
that floats to the top.
There will be some obstacles,
but i refuse to pop.
My air's running out,
it is strength that i lack.
I'm at the top!
Now I'll go all the way back.
I am the poem,
that i just wrote.
The one that you're reading,
it came on a boat.
A boat filled with laughter, 
a boat filled with joy.
And inside the poem,
there lives a young boy.
