I am

I am

A Poem by Sara Elyse Abrams

I am who I am.

I do not not need to prove myself to you.

You want every person to fit into a nice neatly packaged box,

But I will not be defined by only six sentences.

I will not be assigned a box to sit in for the rest of my life,

And I refuse to participate in this patronizing activity.

How can a person be defined by only one trait,

When there are thousands to choose from.

How can you put into six sentences an entire person’s personality.

The answer,

You can not,

And do not think that you can ever define me with only six sentences.
