I’m Not

I’m not

A story

Painted in

Tragedy.

I’m not

A song

Of hurt

And heartbreak

I’m an inspirational

Melody.

I’m not

A dramatic

Portrait

A thing

That speaks of

Sorrow and

Tragedy

I’m a song

Of hope

It’s not

The limitations

Placed on me

That define

Who I am

It’s quiet

Courage

That more

Aptly

Defines me.
