Projecting Shadows on my soul
Telling me who I am
I am so much more then your imagination could conjure
I will not bow down to your
painting of who you think i am
I will push through the fog of whispering decent
and come through stronger then i was on the other side

And when i am
Keep your opinions of me
and do not pretend that you ever thought otherwise of me
For you would paint another picture
of who im not
I am Strong
I will be free

Liked it. The words flowed relatively well and you could see and hear the feeling.  Good one.  <><

i really really like this poem!!! can i make one suggestion? instead of

 "i will not bow down to your

painting of who you think i am"

maybe try

"i will not bow down to your paintings

of who you think i am"

but either way its a very good poem :)
