I am

I am body and soul,
I am desire and pain,
I am a sea of emotions,
I am a quiet mouth,
an oppressed heart.

I am water and fire,
air and ground;
I am light in the darkness
and darkness in the light.

I am laughter and crying,
happiness and sadness;
I am blood and sweat,
I am doubt in certainty.

I am a sand grain in the beach,
a star in the universe;
a fish on the ground
and a bird without wings.

I am the emptiness in the waning moon
and the fullness of a solar eclipse;
I am old youngness
and young oldness.

I am nerves and anxiety,
a clouded and insecure mind;
I am perfect actor
and life’s puppet.
But at the end it’s just me.
