God made me
free to be me
from my own unique face
to my taking up this space.

It's true, another could
take my job or my spot
but be another me?
Of course not!

Irreplaceable is what I am.
I'm one of a kind and so
like a snowflake,
I have a beauty all my own.

Though I may quit
or fail
or die,
no other you 
can take my I.

And so, I’d better do my best to be

all the best I have in me.
