~I~

Lately I've been thinking about a lot of things.
I've been trying to describe everything inside.
Sometimes words fail to describe things, or solve problems.
But I tried and this is what came out. . .
Barely scratches the surface of it all.



~I~

I am

Only a passing

Vapor

Never lasting

I am

Only a weak

Human

That none will seek

I am

A little bit of

Failure

Trying to be strong for the ones I love

I am

A side dish with

Rhythm

Moving to the notes of life's myth

I am

A reservoir of full

Sorrow

With eyes made dull

I am

Sometimes overflowing

Joy

When flower laden winds are blowing

I am

Sometimes incarnate

Pain

When all my desires make me desperate

I am

On certain days

Frayed

Raw ended nerve opened by life's devious ways

I am

Here ever steady

Constant

Rock unmoving for those who need me, ready

I am

At times on the ground

Weakness

Fallen, wicked, bound

I am

Always unto all

True

Refusing covers even when backed against a wall

I am

For you

Here

Ignoring all who leer

I am

A never ending

Struggle

Fighting always against the crowd's sin of blending

I am

Ever only

Me

I am all this and more wrapped in flesh so lowly
