I am.....

One day during literature and composition class all of the students were instructed to choose between two writing prompts, and complete it on a piece of notebook paper. We could choose to either write our own I Am poem or describe with excruciating sensory detail your favorite room in your place of residence. I choose to write my own I Am poem. My poem is as follows:

I am lovable and caring.
I wonder why life is the way it is.
I hear every persons thoughts.
I see love all around me.
I want to be all that I can be.
I am lovable and caring.
I pretend life is perfect.
I feel the world is at peace.
I touch love.
I worry about my family.
I cry about my grandma's death.
I am lovable and caring.
I understand the world will never be at peace.
I say live life to the fullest.
I dream about achieving all my goals.
I try to be the best i can be everyday.
I hope to be successful in life.
I am lovable and caring.

It is usually hard for me to write poetry when it is assigned, especially on a certain topic. This poem however was super easy for me to write. As soon as i got the assignment, i started writing and the words just flowed. This was a great assignment that really got my creativity flowing, because it was my choice on what i wanted to write but yet still had structure to it. All classes need more assignments like this!
