This Is Who I Am

A Poem

By Sheon LittlePublished 9 years ago • 1 min read

This is who I am

Accept me or leave me

But don’t try to change me

Because this is who I am

Strong woman

Strong, black woman

Strong, black gay woman

This is who I am

Accept me or leave me

But don’t try to change me

Because this is who I am

Child of the universe

Child of God

Child of yours

This is who I am

Accept me or leave me

But don’t try to change me

Because this is who I am

A work of art

An open book

A walking poem

This is who I am

Accept me or leave me

But don’t try to change me

Because this is who I am
