Who Am I?

by Nassara Jean

(Miami, FL)

 

Who am I?

The girl in the corner

with a future?

Or am I the girl

with no meaning?

 

Can I be

the girl that brings fortune

and riches

to others below?

 

Can I be

the girl that rises against my enemies

and proves them wrong?

 

Can I be

the girl to change the world

with just one piece of writing?

 

Can I be

the girl with that voice

that gets people excited?

 

Can I be

the girl with the power

that makes people stand up

for what they believe in?

 

Now all I can ask is who I am,

and who I want to be.
