Soy Chicana
I’m an American
Puedo cantar canciones de amor
I am a singer
Puedo pintar un cuadro con muchos colores
I am an artist
Puedo communicarme con los animals
I am an animal lover
Bailo musica latina
I am a dancer
Todos me respetan
I am a leader
Tengo sufficiente dinero
I am secure money-wise economically stable
Me rio mucho de la vida
I am an optimist
Soy una estudiante
I am a Dreamer
Estoy viviendo el sueno Americano
and I don’t want to wake up!


The author's comments:
This poem is in Spanish and English and the English is a translation to what it means to me.

I was influenced by the poem Bilingual in a Cardboard Box
by Javier Pina.
