I AM

(originally posted August 2012)


strong
vibrant
alive
a survivor
fun
bright
thoughtful
funny
interesting
comfortable
warm
intelligent
passionate
compassionate
hopeful
a fighter
and a lover
and SO much more
than you could ever see
or understand
just by looking at the surface
by judging the package I come in
the shape of my body
the colour of my eyes
the length of my hair
I CHOOSE
to see and know
the positive
pieces of me
and to learn
to accept them
and know the TRUTH
of myself
because THEN
I will be able to love YOU
and I AM
LOVE!
