Excellence Award in the 'Write As Rain 2014' competition

I am me
I don't doubt myself
I stand strong in who I am and what I am.
I'll always be me
I won't be that person
Or what anyone else wants me to be.
I'll stand
and I'll stand determined
I will be me
for all eternity.
I won't fall
But if I do fall
I'll fall a fighter
I wouldn't change a thing
There's no one I'd rather be than me!
