I'M Me

I'm me,
I can't be no 
one else.

God's made me 
this way, and I am 
proud of myself.

If you can't understand,
why I feel like I do...

Then don't try fitting
your feet in my shoes.

I'm specially made
unique as they come,
with a little twist and 
some charm.

So next time your 
blinded by a sudden 
ray of sunshine...

Remember it's just 
me walking on by.

Poet Shi, this is truly an excellent piece - we have to first be true to ourselves and to who we really are! I love this honest, sincere declaration of self! Bravo! Pandita
