Who am I?
I am many things.
I am funny, smart, and full of dreams.
I am the clouds you see,
I am the ground you walk on,
I am a box of secrets waiting to be opened,
Simply waiting to be free,
I am me.

What am I?
I am a dreamer, a thinker and a comforter,
I am a son, a brother, an uncle, a grandson,
I am an actor, a singer, and a speech giver,
Sometimes I fall but I am a reacher,
I am what you think of me,
I am many things,
I am one,
I am me.

Where am I?
I am everywhere,
Anywhere I go I leave an impression,
Good or bad that is your perception,
I have one foot in the past,
Remembering those gone and departed,
I have one foot in the present,
Holding dear those who I care about,
And those who care about me,
I have one eye looking toward the future,
For what is to come,
To reach to my future and what I will become.

What can I be?
I can be the neighbor next to you,
I can be the guy in that job you always wanted,
I can have all the answers,
I can have no answers at all,
I can be anything I choose to be,
I can be me.

I can combine all with these last words,
I am who I am,
I am what I am,
I am where I am,
And I can be all I can be,
I am me and I would not change me for the world.

I'm speachless, the only word I have to say is WONDERFUL!

Very nice poem!!! I think it sounds really nice except for a few little places where the rhyme falls out or the word patterns get inconsistent. Except for the third and last verses, the "I am me" motif was very good. Personally, I would have left the last line at "I am me" because it rhymes and repeats and councludes the poem very well. Good work!
