I do, I am

A poem about identity

Is how I feel what others see

Who am I to them and to me.

I sat and pondered on that thought

The more I did an answer I sought.

What I stand for in my head

Seemed so clear and put to bed.

Though I come to realise talk is cheap

A conscience clear a path set steep.

My actions are what I will be judged

Morals known refuse to budge.

To be honest and true is my goal

The choices I make will show it whole.

I will make it clear and must on my own

My identity I am, my identity now known.

    This reminded me of when Albus Dumbledore said, "It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." Loved your poem so much!
