Who I am today (a poem)

A photograph of a Monarch butterfly hanging from a cluster of purple and orange flowers

The way that I was made,
the people I have known,
have all played their role,
in the way that I have grown.

All the things I’ve gone through,
the trials I have faced,
all those things, both good and bad,
have led me to this place.

A place where I can be myself,
the place where I am free,
a place where I no longer hide,
but face reality.

Many things I learned through life,
from things you do and say,
all of this has brought me here,
to who I am today.
