I am...

silent

shifty

reserved
I am me
Then I...

smile

laugh

sing
I am still me
Sometimes I...

cry

yell

fall
That is me
But Mostly I...

read

write

pray
I'm telling you- this is me

I was at a writing camp and you were supposed to create three short somethings about yourself. This was my first poem, but everyone seemed to like it, and I think it may really have helped them understand me.
