I Am
I am
An explorer of truths shielded by mysteries
A warrior in battles fought inside hearts
A muse that reveals itself on weary nights
A midsummer dream wrapped up in a Winter warmth
An old soul nourished by the poetry I breathe
A Jazz song composed of a legendary story
A bittersweet wine growing darker with age
A philosopher of frequencies unexplored by the world
A solitary pilgrim on a perpetual journey
A mystery with the womanhood I possess
A poet of contradictory multitudes echoed
A wave that lives yet surpasses memories
A leaf that grows and withers in nostalgia
A night of eternity with the man I love
A protector with the people I seem to have lost
A novice who forgets the existence of herself
A wisdom that developed from the experienced mistakes
A storyteller who controls the flights in the skies
A rhythm of songs hummed with sprinkled whispers
An adventurous human but also a daughter and a wife
A universe that exists inside and beyond me
A dream that I live in every molecule of mine
I live, I die, I am born, I remain
I am
