When I think of what life would be like if I was different. <br />A person more outgoing and courageous. <br />Someone who isn't afraid and not ashamed of being herself. <br />One who can let go and not feel inferior to the ones she holds dear. <br />To be able to talk easily to more than one person at a time and <br />not be embarrassed that I'll do or say something to push people away. <br /> <br />But when I think of this, it's showing my true fears which hold me back from seeing who I really am, a good friend; one who is loyal and kind. <br />One who can shine just as bright as ones in the limelight. <br />One who can be free and have fun and jump into a conversation while being on the beat of a different drum. <br /> <br />Even when I'm insecure, I love me and I swear I'll strive to be the best me I can be.<br /><br />Angel Gibbs<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-am-me-89/
