I am energy, a spark,
the twinkle of Christmas lights in the dark.

I am a smile, a laugh,
an adventurer clearing her own path.

I am music turned up loud,
a girl who's made her parents proud.

I am beautiful though not thin,
learning to be comfortable in my own skin.

I am a self-identified poet,
though my journal doesn't often show it.

I am silly and strong,
not afraid to admit when I am wrong.

I am on my journey of self discovery;
of one thing I am sure - I love me.
