I Am...
I am not a flower whose beauty radiates in the sun.
I am not an ageless tree that stands fast and strong.
I am not summer breeze that lightens your heart.
I am the night sky that lights your darkened path.
I am not a god who knows all and sees all.
I am not perfect, I am not witty, I am not kind.
If I am none of these things, then what am I?
I am he who brings that which no one else wants to.
I am he who has the job no one else wanted.
I am me, and no one else. I am the non-existent.
