Who I Am Poem by joses tirtabudi

You don't like my hair,
You don't like my dress.
You think I'm wrong;
That you know best.

Think you know better.
Think you got it all.
And right now,
My back's against the wall.

You say I should be here;
But I really should be there.
Come to think of it now,
I should be nowhere.

You say how I should live:
What, when, where, how.
But I'm telling you,
Back off right now.

I was made to praise God,
To live, love, and be free.
God made me:
He made me to be me.

Twasn't to be,
Chasing the stars.
Twasn't to be,
Who you are.

I was made to be me,
With none other alike.
So take a hint
And take a hike.

Made to praise,
Made to live,
Made to love,
Made to give.

Made like no other,
Made by the great I AM.
Just a unique worm,
That's who I am.

So take a deep breath and swallow...
This is who I am.
