Love Me Why

Everyone has something they love about themselves, 
anywhere from  their hair to how they wear their favorite color.
I have always had such a hard time figuring this question out, 
What do I love about myself?
If I was to pick just one thing, 
It would have nothing to do with how I look.
It would have no bearing on the job I held,
Even though I am proud as hell.
The one thing that I hold so dear is that 
These words came from my pen tonight.
You see my favorite characteristic is I can be free,
I can be free when ever I feel the need.
For when I write I am most at peace. 
If I could not write I would not be me.
