I Am

I am Serenity Odai
I am an unsteady ship
I wonder what lies ahead
I hear the raging waters of violence
I see the beautiful sun light shine through
I want to be in a calm sea full of encouragement
I am Serenity Odai
I pretend to be a steady ship on calm and peaceful waters
I feel pain and loneliness constantly
I touch my true self rarely
I worry for my crew aboard my ship
I cry when I lose the important
I am Serenity Odai
I understand that some things change like a current
I say I’m fine, just tired
I dream of my own change and to lead the crew and I to light
I try to fly high
I hope for the morning light on a peaceful sea
I am Serenity Odai
