AM I WHAT I AM
01/25/2019


Am I the image I project
Or, what others perceive
Am I what society has tagged
By my relationship to others
Am I what my deeds profess
Or the actions I committed
Am I just my responsibilities
Or my achievements as well
Am I what I have said
Or what the others hear
In reality, I only exists
As each individual's perception
I AM WHAT I AM

Am I even here

The stage has been set
Nature anxiously waits to see
How the Earth intends
To transform a seed into a tree

Cloaked beneath the soil
Hidden far from sight
Strengthened by the rains
Nourished by the light

And perhaps magic does exist
Just undetected to the human eye
Because that tiny little seed
Has now risen to the sky
