Strong Among Foes For I Am

I am a someone


I am someone who is a warrior among men,a survivor among women.

I am someone who has dealt with tragedy and darkness that would break the very spirit upon a restless soul.

I am someone who the universe throws hurdle after hurdle and wall after wall yet through it all I stand tall,at two and a half betrayed by my dad walked out on me and my family which made me loathe him,But now as I look back I’m better off without him.

I am a type one diabetic with multiple mental challenges and medical hurdles,yet I power through life with a purpose.

I am my own person this is true and no one can break me because I won’t let them through.

I am a lover and I am a fighter combined into one no matter what I will sing my own song,my own song to the beat of my own drum to prove no matter what I will always be that one,that one person who keeps trying that person who keeps fighting that one person who refuses to keep on dying.

I am a Native American and American constantly at war within myself, which ancestor do I please? which one pleases me? It’s hard to tell because it’s such a Discrepancy.

I am a donor of blood I choose to give,you may ask why but what kind of sense is this? Why ask why when you should just give it a try your saving others while saving your own life.

I am a free spirit I turn with the tides I tumble on the grass and land on shore to look up to the sky.

I am shy I can’t stand talking or speaking

I am skiddish like a mouse. 

I am short standing 5’3 my boyfriend teases me about that but then I tease him back.

I am kind and I am caring I have a heart of gold.

I am an ambivert,which means I am an introvert I tend to stay inside but also I am an extrovert I like to be outside.

I am private I value my privacy,among the people who spread lies and hate the ones who gossip like it is their fate.

I am silent,among those who judge and never speak truth in times like that I often feel mute.


I am courteous I like to be polite in a world for of rudeness it’s good to be the light.
 
I am a human being I tend to make mistakes yet the media says perfection is the paved way.

I am a believer,I believe in free speech I believe in free will and freedom upon our needs.

I am religious,but I study other religions too it’s good to get to know someone before we judge the way we do,it’s good to walk a mile or two in their shoes.

I am me,and I may not be perfect but I am proud to say that I exist in a world full of dark clouds.
