Who I Am

Written by Grace

They might laugh

They might jeer

I don't care

I'll stay HERE.

They can snigger

They can snort

It's not me looking stupid

It's THEM and I'M not budging.

Why should I care?

Why should I cry?

I can stand up strong,

show them who I AM.

I AM ME

YOU CAN SEE

I CAN BE

AND PROVE THEM WRONG.
