this is why I am who I am
this is why you can't change me
with a smile
with that look in your eye
it's because I only walk my own way
and I do not look back.

This is why my love is unchangeable
this is why my life doesn't need to be explained
with one word
with a things that you've learned
it's because i can sit and cry my heart out
in a emotional river of pain.

Now you know...
why I am who I am...................................

I really liked this verse. It was short and too the point. This was a great read.
hope to see more.

"it's because I only walk my own way
and I do not look back."

This is a great poem with a great message.  I wish more people thought this way.  Nice job!

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

Very well done.
I liked this one a lot!

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
