I am not my skin

Nor my gender

Nor my hair color

I am not my religion

Nor my body

Nor my things

I am not what you think I am,

What you think I should be,

Nor who you judge me to be

I am my heart

and my spirit

I am my energy

and my actions

I am unique

I am special

I am who I think I am

And that can change with the moments

I am who I think I should be

And I grow with time

I do not judge me because I know

that I am learning and growing

And changing every day

I am becoming always

But I am always ME.
