Who Am I
I am the screams from the wind that blows
In the oozing blood from veins of death
I am grief
I am the voice without a sound
Standing on a pedestal without legs
Talking to ghosts
I am loneliness
I am the eyes of a soul in shades of black
I am guilt
I am the surrendering will of a believing soul
Whose brokenness knows no rest
I am agony
I am the shooting star whose light shot arrows
Never caught a glimpse of glory bright
I am the silent sobs of an infant who never sucked
The milk from its mother’s breasts
I am rejection
I am the stubborn gravel matte that chokes
The stem of its umbilical grip
I am bitterness
I am the recurring echoes of laughter
And giggles in the silent wars of lonely souls
I am hope
I am the subtle whisperly winds
From a weeping willow that dries
The fresh blood dripping from the stench
Of un forgiveness
I am the warm embrace with a kiss
On invisible scars that creates masquerades
I am love
I am the spirals of a shadow
From the summer sun’s stricken horn
In a unicorn’s serenade
I am fierce
I am the roar of a lioness in the silent echoes
Of a ceasing war that I fought with the last drop
Of my blood
I am courage
I am the crystals in the sands off distant shores
Speaking languages of glitz to battered souls
I am pride
I am the dignity that flounders in unique serendipity
I am the virgin faith with a standing ovation
Smeared by vintage aroma
I am a legend
I am the exculpation of pain weaved souls
The elusive waive of hollow enigmas
I am forgiveness
I am the surrogacy in the hive of impeccable touch
I am sacrifice
I am the texture of a heart in mingled silhouettes
Of heavenly white
I am purity
I am the scars of a staraple fate that wears a thick coat
Of royal purple, with stars of grace shooting
From the arrows of its celestial muse
I am royalty
I am the wings of an eagle in the last of storms
From eastern winds
I am freedom
I am the diamonds in the vowels of stories
Shared through decades from bows of hearts
I am forever
