Nor I am Not a Mistake
I am Not Worthless
I am Me
I am not You

Very true and really speaks right to my heart...It reminded me of a proverb I once read that says:"Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken" Your poem is so strong and pictures every emotion so beautifully. I can so easily relate to it and it is kind of hard cuz sometimes I feel like everyone is perfect or at least better than me, while in fact I should've seen that I am good enough and I am proud of who I am "ME" Thank god now I realized it. Really great job on this and especially on forcing on the "I am not" it gave it a powerful and unique touch ^_^ Keep it up and belive in yourself. No matter what they say, just always remember that as long as your faith and will are strong, pure and honest, no one can ever break you down. Cuz when someone is trying to bring you down, that only means that you are above him/her ;) So keep that in mind okay?! ;) lol 5 Stars for this definitely :D Thanks a lot for sharing this.
