I Am What I Am

I am what I am
I’ve always been there with them
I am what and I am when
They write about me with a heart shaped pen

I am what I am
I go where and when
I was, I will be and I am
I am at my best when forbidden to them

I am what I am
I can be a song, a tune or a gem
Different for ladies, children and men
Create, destroy and start all over again

I am what I am
I am wisdom, knowledge and power forever till the end
I am how you choose – a wish, a miracle, a curse or a stem
I am love…

Yet again
I simply am what I am

A very nice written poem, you have stated it really truly that love can be thought of as anything, depending on your experience with it, it can be the best rhing on Earth which can make you strong, or your biggest weakness and which has made you weak, something with which you can have good as well as bad memories, something that can made you smile and something that can made you cry, it can make you think as if you re blessed or as if ypu re cursed, a really beautiful poem, good lucluck j
