I Am
Created by a love unknown
Shaped with unseen hands
I therefore take shape like none before me
Awakened, acknowledging the source of my being
I see truth, understanding all
Fearing nothing, unashamed by what I am
A wonder, I envision the dream
Though we are apart,
We share but one heart
Alas she's taken by falsehood
I must fight to regain her
For I hunger her and nothing will refrain
A fire burns within like none before
I attempt the ultimate, yet I fail
Dread has opened my eyes
Now I must die along with the lie
Oh sorrow of sorrows
For another must now regain my own heart
I lost in a moment
Daring to be more than what I am
A man desiring his love
Attempting to pay a price
Which cannot be bought
