I Am What I Am
If I knew… there need not be
Have you known… have you seen?
Did you wish not for what to see?
Is there that wish for that dream?
I would have known otherwise
You would have known the other
If I do, do you not deny?
Are there those words if not meant for another?
Those of words not meant to be
That of said… as well I do not hear
If seen ain’t never for one to see
What lies for one’s heart to truly dear?
I do not know until
Might I have known an otherwise?
Those of words… if only you knew
Need I for another to… lie
If your knew… there need not be
You have seen… would you have known?
Have you wish not for what to see?
Is there that dream… once own?
