Literature Text

I am a vegetarian who has loved nature all my life.
I am a never-ending list of relatives and nationalities.
I am a big sister, a daughter, a niece, a granddaughter, and most importantly a cousin.
I am sun through the vibrant trees in autumn and moonlight on a frozen forest.
I am confident of who I am and plagued by self-doubt.
I am a child running and playing with the boy across the street, and an adolescent losing him forever.
I am words on a page and in my head, stories to escape this life for better or worse.
I am candlelight on a stormy night, and moonlight when the sky is clear.
I am the ocean, free to do as I please and trapped forever in myself.
I am a wolf pack and a solitary cat, an owl flying high and a fox stealing the night.
I am a paintbrush, spreading the brightest colors and subtlest shades on the possibility of a white canvas.
I am a rose to love and mourn.
I am an unbiased start and a final farewell.
I am a student all my life, soaking in knowledge like a sponge.
I am a dreamer and a killjoy, when all else is gone.
I am screaming at the world and crying for the victims.
I am a pacifist ready to fight.
I am a chrysanthemum bathed in sunlight and a mitten lost in the snow.
I am a soothing, healing rain and a devastating, destructive flame.
I am solitude but I am not alone.
I am a ring of gold in a world of green, a fiery red fading back into a soft brown, and a blossoming pink below a translucent white pulling to the surface.
I am center stage and behind the scenes.
I am barefoot in combat boots.
I am singing it for what matters.
I am terrified and I am fearless.
I am the past and the future, still trying to find the present.
I am about to step off the edge but I do not.
I am mountains reaching toward the heavens and caves digging for hell.
I am open to the world and hiding behind a mask.
I am row upon row of bodies beneath fields full of poppies.
I am mad as a hatter living forever in tea-time.
I am the long empty halls and hundreds of rooms of a killer's maze.
I am Sophie Hatter, Christine Daae, Rhine Ellery, Beatrice Prior and Diandra Xenia Alpers.
I am a real pine tree in the living room, cookies fresh out of the oven and family never far away.
I am worn old jeans and a soft sweater.
I am a friend to all who will and stand by no matter what.
I am Skippy's duck brethren.
I am a carbon copy of my father in personality.
Who am I? I am 24601.
This is a poem I had to write for an English assignment. The last line I had to alter from the one I turned in because the requirement for the assignment was that each line had to start with the words "I am." This is what it was SUPPOSED to be. There are a lot of hidden references in here that only certain people will know. See if you can find them!
