Image for the poem I

I'm who I'm

I'm not defined by my birth right.
I'm not defined by my parents.
I'm not defined by my color.
I'm not defined by my race.
I'm not defined by my sex, age, weight nor my height.
I'm defined by my choices.
I choose my thoughts.
I choose my own religion.
I choose my vogue, my trend.
I choose to be loyal to my dreams.
I choose those I call my friends.
I choose my path to my own destiny
And yes.
I have made choices I've come to regret.
And made some that make me happy.
And I have made some that make me wanna hide my head in shame.
And I have also made some choices that makes me feel alive.
Maybe the choices I've made don't appeal to you.
Maybe these choices makes you hate me.
And maybe they're what makes you love me.
And sometimes this choices are all I have.
And sometimes this choices are all I need.
I'm who I'm.
Because of the choices I've made.
So cast your stones and cast your judgments.
You don't make me who I'm….
