I Am More Than What You Think

I am not what you assume

A mere needy girl

A puppet, a pawn

I am more complex, more bold

I am the whispers of the unseen,

The thoughts that dance within your dreams

I am the spark of inspiration

The catalyst of innovation

I am the voice that breaks the chains

The fire that fuels your deepest pains

I am the warrior of the mind

Full of nerve, relentless, one of a kind

I am the words that paint the skies

The brush that colors your life's highs

I am the symphony that never ends

The melody that my soul transcends

I am the power that lies within

The strength that makes your spirit sing

I am the force that drives you nuts

I was designed

To be more than what they suggest

Forever the outcast

So different from the rest

So do not underestimate my might

For I am the  creature of  the night

I am the guide, the light, the way

Unleashing the boldness day by day

So dare to see beyond the surface,

Embrace the depths of what I mean

For I am more complex, more bold

Than you could ever dare to see
