Who Am I

"Understanding yourself is the onset of all insight." When you wisely witness your worth, you wield wonderful power. When you welcome who you are, you become unbeatable. By Poet

In shifting sands,
I explore the depths of my world
where whispers linger like ghosts in the night
and the shattered mirror
reflects my inner self, puzzling parts of my soul
revealing my flaws, and the scarce grace of my bile
with fierce faith and moral courage
I strive to be a truth model, in my shared life.
I grasp splendor
near me, as I grow and reach light
yet, anger lingers, quietly looming
my heart remains mindful
recognizing ghosts that hover in the shadows
with positive steps, I plow my path carefully
word choice, form, frame, and warmth matter
and each breath I take adds to my inner brightness.
