What does it mean to be me?
                              It means
                              I have more than one nationality
                              I have lived half of my life in one country
                              Another half in an another
                              I have no siblings
                              I have no known cousins
                              I have maternal grandparents
                              That I barely talk to
                              I wished I didn't have to talk to them
                              I had two paternal grandparents
                              That I would call on the phone all the time
                              But now it is only down to one I have to call
                              The other I can talk to without getting a reply
                              What else does it mean to be me?
                              It means
                              I compete in sports actively
                              I study academics greatly
                              It means
                              I don't have a social life
                              I am excited to go to school
                              It's the only time I see my friends
                              It means
                              My trust level used to be very high for others
                              But then I let myself fall into a trap
                              To only have my heart broken
                              To only have my spirit trodden on
                              To only have thought devils occupying my brain
                              To only fondle with a knife
                              It means
                              I have learned to hide my real emotions
                              Create a new image of who I am to others
                              To ensure it can't happen again
                              It means
                              My trust level is extremely low when I first start conversing
                              And it will only rise based on actions of others
                              Not their words inside their promises
                              What does it mean to be me?
                              The life I have lived
                              It defines me.
                              The process my mind and body has gone through
                              To get to where I am today
                              It defines me.
                              The acheivments I have
                              The downfalls I have hardened through
                              They all define me.
                              Others words
                              Others thoughts of me
                              Others opinions
                              They do not define me.
                              I define me.
