I'm Real


This is me,
Here I am,
I’m real and that’s all you,
Need to, understand.

I’m standing proud,
For all to see,
I’m happy and that’s,
The way I, want it to be.

This is me,
I’m all I am,
I want to share with all,
How my happiness began.

Every hardship,
Every fight,
I’ve fought my way through,
To make my wrongs right.

This is me,
Still fighting strong,
I’m here in this world,
Where I belong.

Hate me, love me,
I’ll let you decide,
I can only give,
What I can provide.

This is me,
What more can I say?
Accept me for me,
‘Cause I’m, here to stay.

    Interesting write. Very open and yet still closed, in a sense, almost like a one way mirror. An excellent entry.

    Best of Luck,

    greata poem, but all the commas are very distracting. they are at the end of every line [[even when they aren't needed]] and some in the middle of the lines where they create an akward pause. i love the poem itself, its just those commas.

    BEAUTIFULLY EXPRESSED!!!

    One can only be themselves and give what is within themselves to give. If others do not like who they are and what they have to give that is up to them but do not stop them from being what they are.
