I Am
i am in front of you
i am on your side
i am something
you can't see with eyes
just like a whisper
warm as a breath
strong as the thing
inside your chest
i am not many
i am only one
i follow no man
i follow the sun
an i walk alone
so they call me a loaner
i have no leash
so i have no owner
when i finally do stop
it will be my choice
they can take my mind
but not my voice
i won't change my words
for the powers that be
i am a force
the force of me
