Challenge time!!

In my AP Lit class, my teacher told us to write a paper using these following things:
A conversation you had with someone,
Song quote,
A Myth,
Important memory from your childhood,
And a quote or a description from a novel or some sort of art work.
All this has to describe you!
Can you do it? and fit it into a nice paper. It's a creative write so any form, style, anything goes on this!
Post it on your blog or e-mail it to me
eliciadnlsn@yahoo.com

Here is mine: (p.s. i'm rereading it and it sounds sort of depressing! what do you think it means?)

You are influenced
By those you love, but they never know
How they cause harm.
Being the one to play the part of the
Young man never suits one who wants to be the Princess

You always tell yourself
I am a daughter of royal birth,
My father is King of Heaven and Earth,
My spirit was born in the courts on High,
A daughter of god, a princess am I.

You always wish to be the girl
Who conquers all odds,
Goes against her family,
And finds her prince in the end.

You wish to find that prince
And live forever,
Lost in love.
But the hope is not far off.

You believe but what you see,
You receive but what you give,

Listen to your mother telling
That “you are worth the time,
Do not let those who dislike you
Trample over you or cause you harm.
There will be a day when all the right Young Men
Will surround you, hoping that you will choose them
To be your prince.”

Do not reply “I don’t see that happening,
I get ignored by those I choose to like,
And burned by them unfairly.”

Caress the one, the never fading rain in your heart,
The tears of snow white sorrow,
Caress the one, the hiding Amaranth in the land of the
day break.

Nice! Creative writing! Blech! I am so NOT creative. I'm not even going to attempt this.

Wow...I don't even feel like a college grad right now...I had re-read some of the lines to really get them to sink in. You're a great writer! I'm impressed!
