I Am What I Am

I live my own life,
I am whatever I want to be,
I'm loud,
I'm crazy,
I might be more than you think,
Call me a freak,
But thats who I am,
Messing around,
Goofing off,
Screaming out my heart,
I am what I am,
I can't do whatever I want,
But I can do whatever I believe in,
I don't be someone I'm not,
I'm not one to be shy,
I'm loud and proud,
I'm crazy and liking it,
On the inside I'm beautiful,
Even if I'm not on the outside,
Joy leaks out my heart,
Love wraps around me like a ribbon,
I am what I am,
You can't change that,
No one can,
Living like a bird,
Always singing,
Running like a cheetah,
Not knowing when to stop,
Sleeping like coffe,
Not at all,
I am what I am,
I believe in what I want,
I'm in love,
I'm happy,
I'm everything but upset,
The world is my home,
I don't know what hurts more,
People telling me I'm crazy for believing in what I do,
Or people telling me what to believe in,
I can't live my life like a robot,
I don't have a remote control,
I don't run on electricity,
I am what I am,
And that's all I will ever be

    I have said this before but the words 'I am' are said to be the most powerful words in the universe. That being said I see the beauty and pain in this because this world does not support you being yourself. It creates an image and i just love it when I see someone fighting against such deciet. The only thing I hate in this world is the depletion of being. It comes in so many forms. That is why I LOVE this poem. I'm curious though why you asked me to comment on your poems? Please answer.

    WE never know what's going to happen to us and change us. In the bible, King Nebuchadnezzar said "Is not this the great Babylon which I have built for myself?" he demanded. "By my might and my power and for the glory of myself I've done all of this!"
    The words were still on his lips when a voice came from heaven, "This is what is going to happen to you, King Nebuchadnezzar: Your royal authority has been taken from you. You will be driven away from people and will live with the wild animals; you will eat grass like cattle. You will live this way for seven years, until you acknowledge that the Most High is ruler over the kingdoms of men and gives them to anyone he wishes." Our life is not our own.
