Analysis of A Unique PAW Print ( I'm 13 years old )



Inside my PAW is my essence.
Inside my essence is me.
But what makes me?
Everything I come frome makes me.
Therefore I am what I come from.
I am of mud-ball fights and police.
I am from risks and consequences.
I am of arguing and tears,
and regrets and lies.
I am of more than you could expect.
I am of uniqueness and taunts.
I am of love and hate;
War and peace.
I am of dog tags and soldiers.
I am of the unexpecting.
I am of the ambitionist and volunteering.
I am of first-aid giving and violins.
I am of the pawns that over threw the queen.
I am of the knights that rescue anyone from the depths of themselves.
I am of the inspired and perservering.
I am of peaceful protesting.
I am of what the world should be.
I am not of the perfect ,though no one can be.
I am of passed lies and depression.
I am of no one to you.
I am of a different path and new light.
I am of SILENCE.
I am of hard work and fear.
I am of Life guards and cheerleaders;
Of soccor and farms.
I am of me and not you,
This is my PAW print so here's your cue
I am to say what is well over due-
I am not you but, as you can see,
I AM ME!
