I am who I am

I am who I am
By: Adam M. Snow

I will not change,
this is who I am.
You can mock me,
I will not give in.
You can feed me lies-
from your jealousy tongue,
I know the truth;
I am who I am.
I will not change,
my future is my own;
I choose my own path,
I will not bow to you.

I like this poem. Stand your ground and live your own life. I like the honest and directness of the poem. No weakness in the outstanding poetry.

We all do best to know who we are - changing for someone else is not a valid reason to change. Wise words.

Words to live by indeed...great work Adam.

I love poems on this subject, especially from young adults, who refuse to follow the crowd! It gives me hope for humankind's future.

A great and well written affirmation, Adam - comfortable in your own kin, changing for no one!
