WHAT AM I? What am I? No more than a moment of time Suspended between the now and the future- With the past clinging to my back To which I could never return. What am I? The tiniest and frailest of leaves On the slender bough of life Soon to be blown away by a sudden storm- Buried among fallen petals and flowers. What am I? An unknown and unheard voice In a faraway corner of nature I have chosen Surrounded by quiet meadows and smiling flowers Where the incessant sound of song-birds Hushes my small voice and consoles my heart. What am I? A single note on the score Of a grand symphony- A speck, a comma in the limitless expanse Of time and destiny. What am I? Only this my heart truly knows- It is in the dying of myself unto love That transcends all- To be eternal in that blissful state Untouched neither by time nor human sorrows.

WHAT AM I?
WHAT AM I? What am I? No more than a moment of time Suspended between the now and the future- With the past clinging to my back To which I could never return. What am I? The tiniest and frailest of leaves On the slender bough of life Soon to be blown away by a sudden storm- Buried among fallen petals and flowers. What am I? An unknown and unheard voice In a faraway corner of nature I have chosen Surrounded by quiet meadows and smiling flowers Where the incessant sound of song-birds Hushes my small voice and consoles my heart. What am I? A single note on the score Of a grand symphony- A speck, a comma in the limitless expanse Of time and destiny. What am I? Only this my heart truly knows- It is in the dying of myself unto love That transcends all- To be eternal in that blissful state Untouched neither by time nor human sorrows.
