I AM that I AM that I AM

No one's going to believe me 

But I know why God is silent 
Why He doesn’t answer 
Or hear our prayers 

Beside the fact that His Head is in the clouds 

It’s because He is inside each and every one of us 
Fragmented into a billion voices in billions of beings 
All made in His image, of course 
Each one of us, with a spark of His Grace 
Must understand one thing and one thing only 

Just imagine for a moment, that every word ever spoken 
Written or imagined, is the WORD of God 

We are the stuff that Gods are made of 
Or is it the other way around? 

He’s never coming back
                     because He never left 
                                         She’s right there sitting beside you 

Each one of us must decide 
Each one of us must choose 

"What do I believe?"
And is it really worth fighting for        killing for

If only, each and every single billion of us, 
Would just listen to that inner voice 
And share in this pathetic dream of mine
Oops, I mean, poetic dream of mine

We must connect with the gift that God has given to each and every one of us 

                                        

                                                   LIFE

 

And only Love will set us free 

Until We, every single billion of us, 
Declare with one voice 

     I AM that I AM 

We shall remain in ignorance, fragmented  

                                        And alone.  

Separate from God.                                             Separate from each other. 

                     Forever waiting for the day that will never come 

It’s already here     It always has been     We just have to take a leap in faith 

And believe in one another 
                                             NOW        Repeat after me . . .  

              I AM that I AM that I AM that I AM . . .
                                                        the Great I AM that never ends.

Just a couple of 'stray' comments here, B.B: 1.) You are following in the footsteps of that immortal cartoon character, 'Popeye,' who famously used to tell Olive Oil: "I ams what I ams, Olive." 2.) Between 'pathetic' and 'poetic,' sometimes there is no gap at all. lol. Keep smiling, Gershon
