I dare you to change me, to turn me around <br />I'm a package already sent, a ball of string tightly wound. <br />I live to laugh, to love, to smile <br />I try to cry only once in awhile. <br /> <br />I'll climb to the top of a very tall tree <br />To yell to the world I'm no one but me. <br />I refuse to pretend I'm anyone else <br />I'll never be anyone but my own self. <br /> <br />I love to play soccer, to kick the ball hard <br />To watch it fly over my front yard. <br />I try to kick it into the net <br />High and hard like a speeding jet. <br /> <br />I try to smile on the hardest of days <br />And cheer people up many ways. <br />I refuse to doubt and frown <br />No matter how big of a let down. <br /> <br />Life is very very fun <br />Interesting things always there to be done. <br />Everyday is something new, a corner to be turned <br />Many things to be noticed, many things to be learned <br /> <br />But everyday I promise to <br />Keep a difference between me and you. <br />There is only one thing I can ever be <br />And that one thing is just plain me.<br /><br />Rachel Mac<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-i-am-104/
