I Am

I am a dance 

 That flows in time 

To the eternal life of creation. 

I am a song 

That lives on the waves 

Of the air above. 

I am a painting 

That hangs in this world 

And gets admired,

 and sometimes ridiculed. 

I am a raindrop 

That meets the ground 

Before my story is told. 

 I am creativity

But so are you 

That lingers in this would 

And goes unnoticed.

 I am hope 

That gives you another chance 

To change the man in the mirror.

 I am justice 

That prevails in the end 

Shattered in the paint of truth. 

I am music 

That stands out 

 In a melody I call my own. 

 I am a tear 

 That falls down our cheeks 

Out of grief and joy. 

 I am a war 

 That needs to stop hurting

The ones I love 

Immediately. 

I am a band-aid, 

That keeps the world together

 And on it's feet. 

I am comfort

 That rocks you gently 

When you feel down and lonely.

 I am the stars 

That shine at night 

 Lighting your way. 

 I am the moon 

That proudly in the sky 

You are no longer scared of. 

I am magic 

But so are you

 That will heal the world And our children.

 I am love

 But so are you, 

and you, and you... 

And all of you 

  That cares for everyone and everything. 

 I am a human, 

That has a heart and feeling 

Just like everyone else.
