Description
Because of the trials and tribulations in my life, I am strong. I stand tall when I am hurt. I laugh when you obviously lie to me, with a nervous smile lying dead across your face. I’m shocked when I find you have lied to me, but I won’t let a few tears ruin my fun. I remain tall when someone tries to break me down. That is why I am, who I am.

People always try to break me: I say let them try. I can be broken, but only after all my layers of defense have fallen. My defense falls when trust has been fully achieved, and I trust that person with everything I am. By cheating and by lies I can be hurt, but I can never be shot to the ground. Even when wounded, I will fly on with strong valiant wings that can swoop low over your head, or climb high into the heavenly sky. Don’t get me wrong in what I’m saying, I can be broken and I have in the past.

Don’t try to break me; I’ll see right through you. Don’t try to change me for the worse, only help be along my path for the better. I can see when you’re plotting to hurt me, don’t try to hide it. Be honest, be trustworthy, be loyal, be a friend. Show me the respect I deserve, the respect I have earned, and I will show you the same courtesy; I could show the highest respect I could possibly have for any person. I can give you my heart. I can love.

Care for me, like I care for you. I might have been hurt, I might have been disappointed, but I promise I will give you a chance. Every chance I give takes part of me, but a few of those times the person has shown me something new and has made me whole again. Don’t think I won’t cry if my heart breaks. I’ll cry when I feel there is a good reason behind it. No tear will ever fall down these cheeks, that you should take for granted. Savor them, for they are signs that I cared. After they are gone and my cheeks have dried, I will attempt to make myself strong again. It’s the only way I know to get over pain, the kind of pain that can only be felt by the heart.

For all the things I see, I hear, and I feel, there is an emotion inside me. Sometimes I will let it out and let it be seen. Other times you have to pay attention to my every move. There are people I love, but I will never let it show. There are things that bring pain to my heart, but you can see the pain. Anyone can see a tear fall, but can you see the reason, the heart, the pain, the emotion, the love, the virtue, the happiness, the truth, the joy, and everything that falls with it? If you can, I congratulate you. Don’t tell me you can, because I don’t care to know. Just tell me what is meaningful. Tell me what I want to hear. What I need to hear. What you want me to hear. What you need me to hear. What you need to say.

Me. I am one thing and only one thing. I will remain who I am. My opinions might change, but only when I learn more truth. My heart might break, but you will still see me flying through the air. A tear might fall, but I will never regret letting it fall. Simply because I know my cheek will dry and I will be wiser after it all. Let me remain as I am. I will allow you the same. Show me respect and the same will be shown unto you. Love me for who I am.

I am what the world has made me, what God intended for me to be. I am the truth that lies deep within my heart, the truth that has set me free. After so much, I have learned all about myself. I know who I am. I am truly, I am simply, me.
