Who am I?

Some things are better left unsaid.

Who am I? I'm no one special,

Not an angel, Not a devil.

I just try to live my life,

Avoid the sharp end of the knife.

 

Like everyone, I too feel sorrow,

But I'd like to see tomorrow,

In the hope the world will change -

So much anger, so much rage.

 

Who am I? I'm nothing new,

Just a person, just like you.

The only difference is - I care,

Care enough to do, to dare.

 

Like everyone, I live right here,

Yet I'll never live in fear.

When problems come I'll stand my ground,

Never leave what I have found.

 

Who am I? I'm just a voice,

For you as I too have a choice.

So join the cause - help stop the lie,

Just please don't ask me who am I.

Let me start by saying I really liked the rhyming scheme you put together here while delivering powerful thoughts.
It starts off sounding like a person who doesn't like things but doesn't want to get dragged into the fight. But then later in the poem they sound almost miltant, like they were burned once too often and now want not only to do something about it themselves but also are trying to instill those values in others.

Great work.
