Who am I?

I did not carry a sword to fight for freedom

Neither did I lead the world with my wisdom ,

My head is too weak to bear the crown of an empire

Something tells me that’s not what people now a days admire,

I wish I could mark my name in numbers like Lovelace

I wish I could become a person to embrace ,

If only I could be as courageous as Irena Sendler

If only I could exude the beauty of Monroe

I could speed my way up like Dorothy levitt and assert my views like Angelou ,

Neither words of Austen nor the grace of Hepburn , neither compassion of Teresa nor the courage of Rosa ,

Held together with a sigh I ask my mother ,

Who am I ?
