WHO AM I
By Melanie Thibeault
Attleboro High School
I am unknown
Incomplete
Molding myself into a respectable human being
I am on a quest to find myself
To discover the meaning of my existence
I am young, in the dawn of life
Many tribulations are ahead
I will be ready
I am strong
I am a mixture
Representing past and future generations
Coming from the roots of my ancestors
Who faced many hardships to create this world
I symbolize the future
I am the hope of the future
Paving the way so humanity can experience meaningful lives
I embody humans of every era
We all face similar trials of life
Yet we overcome them
I am humanity
Searching for the key to the perfect world
I am a daughter, a student, a friend
Surrounded by wonderful, loving people
Who make up the world in which I live and thrive
I am a reformer
Fighting for change
Rallying against the evils of this planet
Hoping to change just one single person's life
I am a feeler
Affected by the world around me
Sensing the pain of others
Which shifts something inside
Moving me to act
I am a writer
Practicing my craft every day
My work is fueled by my boundless imagination
I am a musician
Performing pieces for the world to hear
Penning lyrics for the world to relate to
I am a thinker and a student
Eager to learn new things to expand my intelligence
I am a teacher
Ready to help anybody in need
Spreading the knowledge I have gained
I am many things mixed into one person
Past and future
Dark and light
Sun and moon
Life and death
Day and night
Fire and ice
Leader and follower
Realist and dreamer
Crazy, yet sane
Shy, yet outgoing
Intelligent, yet brainless
Serious, yet witty
I am many different qualities
Shared by countless individuals
I am singular
I am different
I am me |
