I am me, without you
I am a mind of my own,
On my own
I am a thought, uninduced
Not influenced by sage or fool
I am the wisdom to know
I am the courage to ask
I am the strength in my bones
it takes to find my own path.
I am the wish to acquiesce
I am the will to resist
I am the desire to love, and be loved
I am the whim to loudly sing.
I am not the rainbow, above the clouds
For I am but one in a crowd.
But I am whole,
And I am me,
Because I am free.
