I'm proud of me

I'm proud of me.
I'm content that I'm a creative person.
I'm proud of what I'm doing.
i love that i can be me in any way i choose.

i am happy with the way i look
i don't care how many people hate me because of something that happened years ago.
I'm proud to be a musician and photographer.
I'm grateful to be able to do the things i do.

I'm so lucky to have so many friends.
i don't care if you judge me
but beware you dis my friends I'll be proud enough to defend them.

I'm proud to be able to smile and say yes i did that.
I'm happy with my achievements
i no longer give a damn about the bad things in life.
life is too short to be sad over something that happened years ago
I'll accept that there are things that hurt but i will get over them I'm proud to say i will fight for anything i want in the future.

i will do what i have to...this is my life and i wont lay down and die. I'm proud to admit to fighting to live.
i don't deny that i did things i regret...but they are the past.

enough of a defensive attitude. enough is enough I'm on a change, i want the world to see me for who i really am. i want to be known. I'm not going to back away or be easily defeated anymore.

I'm proud to be me. I've achieved so much.
i have nearly everything i could want.
i am proud to admit that i don't want too much.
i am on the path to where i want to get and I'm happy to just be me.

in the end just being me is more than enough. anyone who doesn't like me can get over it. this is me and this is who i am I'm never going to be anything else. so get used to it. I'm coming out of the shadows and I'm going to make myself seen in the end.

    More of a story than a poem but the repetition does bring some structure to it.
    theres some great ideas and language here but i think you need to work on condensing your feelings into a more poetic structure, for example use a few metaphors rather than just writing your feelings...i know that the point of poetry is to express yourself but i think this could be improved if you add a bit more depth to it by using figurative language so that you express yourself but at the same time connect with the reader...
