I too, am an American

This poem is modeled after the one by Langston Hughes, called I too, Sing in America. I thought I would create my own. Here it is.

I Too, Believe in America

I too, believe in America
Because I am the girl that was believed in
“You can do it!” She said to me, and I believe her
I believed her belief in me
Sometimes it’s hard and big and challenging
And scary
But I believe

I am the girl whose beliefs were persecuted
Judged for believing in myself
And for believing God loves everyone
He believes in us
He is the one who whispers “You can do it!”
Do you believe Him?
I do

I will be the one
Who cheers to the children “You can do it!”
I believe in them
Will they?

I believe in the children of America
