Why I'M Not Made Me

I'm not made me to stare on at the world, 
Else I become the sky;
 
I'm not made me to be exploited without resistance, 
Else I become the earth;
 
I'm not made me to roam from dawn till dusk,
Else I become a low animal; 

I'm not made me to be feared by my fellow mortals,
Else I become a god;
 
I'm not made me to be pushed around, 
Else I become a piece of furniture;

I'm not made me to be an awesome and dreaded enigma, 
Else I become Bermuda Triangle;
 
I'm not made me to be hated by all, 
Else I become that that does not exist;
 
I'm not made me to be loved today and hated tomorrow, 
Else I become fire;
 
Just like the rain, sun and wind, 
I'm made me to be there for all;
 
Just like the moon, 
I'm made me to give out as I receive;
 
I'm made me to do glorifying deeds to He that made me!
