I am unreal, I am supreme,
I am my thoughts, I am my dreams,
I am my life, I am the sky,
I am my reason, I am my why,
I am everything that I have seen,
I have the life of a teenage dream,

I am here, I am alive,
I am the ace, I’ll win the prize,
I am my mind, I own this time,
I am anything I can design,
I am this life, I am this dream,
I am FREE:
Like smoke and steam

I am smart; but I am naïve
There no person, I don’t want to believe,
I hope all day, everyone, can be helped
But I am hit everyday, by the cynical belt,
I am weakened, I am knocked down,
But I am strong; and I am proud,
I won’t give up on good,
I am aware that anger is noisy, sawing, wood,
It is bleating, hard to ignore,
But good is tingling right from your core,

I am unwise, but I am fine,
I don’t share the thoughts of the man Einstein,
I am not saying that life isn’t hard,
We all get smoked and I am charred,
I can see signs every day,
Telling us to hide, to run away,
I have seen people who are bad,
But cynicism is a rotten fad,
Life is good but not ideal,
It is wasted if we do not feel,
I love people, I love my art,
I love my lungs, I love my heart,
I love my brain, I love my mind,
I love to feel, I love my spine,                        
I love craters in the fertile Earth,
I love cities raised from the dirt,
I wish it all was saved like film scenes,
And the one thing to last,
Was the breaths I breathe.
