I Am Me
I am a tightrope, flexible yet taut is twisted to the limit
just because I am human
I wonder what seeing a new spectrum of colors would be like
just because curiosity killed my cat
I hear the salt of the ocean whistling through the waves
just because it had danced on my tongue before
I see the seven deadly sins hidden around me
just because it’s disguised doesn’t mean it’s a secret
I feel the warmth of a mother’s beating heart
just because compassion throbs endlessly
I pretend to understand the world
just because I live for that little bit of intelligence
I dream to be walked over, tripped on, caressed by, and worn onto
just because if I come out alive, then I have truly lived.
