I am the architect
of possibilities
built from confidence
and my kingdom
shall stand
strong
among the crashing waves
I am the artist
painting the canvas
of my life in colors
not seen on Earth
because I am of the ocean
and planets
across the universe
I am the poet
writing lines on my palm
so that when these hands
touch another's,
that person may know
my truth
I am the present
to this life, given
from my mother
and father
so that I may learn
to help
stand up
those who have fallen
I am the breath,
the pulse, the beat,
the cry, the laugh,
the smile, the embrace,
and I will continue
to build this paradise
until the flags
atop these towers
may be seen
from galaxies
beyond the naked eye
I am alive
