No Label Required - I Have A Name

Why do we have to have so many freaking labels for people?
I don't want to be called....
or known by....
a label....
I'm more than one label...
I'm more than one noun...
You give me names that I didn't ask for...
Names that I want you to lose and never find.
I want my renown to be about my character
My integrity
My kindness
My compassion
My voice for those that have no voice
My love for the least and my love for the greatest
My hope in Him
My faith in Her
My yearning for peace
My desire to see the things that no one wants to see
My forgiveness 
........
Me
My name
Me
My name
Not your label
