The small "uh huh, nu uh's," because I almost always win.
I am a kid inside. I'd like to keep that with me forever.
I like to jump in mud puddles. My two friends and I stand in the middle
And we count to three and try to make the biggest splash possible.
My favorite quote is: "You don't stop laughing because you grow old...
You grow old, because you stop laughing."
Who am I?
I try not to hold any grudges against anyone.
Hate is not my way of solving problems.
Violence falls under hate. If I hated every little thing that bothered me
I would just become just like most everyone else,
Of whom forms this wall of hatred and won't let anyone in.
Who am I?
I am a girl. I like flowers, and being held and loved.
I like the color pink and to talk on the phone.
I like guys. I am comfortable with being myself around guys.
I am a dork, and I let it show. I like to make my friends laugh.
If someone is sad and crying, it makes me sad and want to cry with them.
I don't like to cry. It makes me feel empty inside.
Who am I?
I have rules, standards, and even laws to abide by, and I will.
I am an American. I live among a family that is "racist" in so many ways
That it makes me sick. I am no different than my friends, because we are all equal.
I have the same blood running through me as all of them.
In a way, I am just like everyone else. I am not a white dot upon a chalkboard,
I stand in the crowd and I blend in, but I stand tall, because I am okay with the real me.
Who am I?
I am proud of who I am, and who I will be.
I am a teenager, young woman, and someday the "young" will fall away,
But for right now, I am who I am, and that's all I can be.
I don't and won't try to fit into a specific stereotype, because that's not me,
And I won't fit into any one of them... but ME..
