| Who am I? Am I to be your judge; no? Am I to be right alone; no? Am I a perfect man; no? Who am I? Am I the wisest of all; no? Am I the keeper of truth; no? Am I truly righteous; no? Who am I? Am I the one who determines reality; no? Am I the one who brings salvation; no? Am I the one who you’d call intellectual; no? Who am I? Am I called your friend…? Am I one you would call in need…? Am I one you could love…? Who am I? I am the one that will love you; yes. I am the one that cares; yes. I am the one who believes; yes. That I am! I am a being in this space in time; yes. I am a man by the flesh I wear; yes. I am a part of this universe; yes. That I am! I am one that searches for truth; yes. I am one observing it all; yes. I am one that will call you a friend; yes. That I am! I am more powerful than I know; yes. I am the holder of ancient news, yes. I am a spirit connected to the God I praise; yes. That I am! I am a being alike you… I am the man I choose to be… I am… … … … … … … … … … That I am! Who are you? Note: It is advised to check the definitions of “be” in a good dictionary, as “am” is a present form of “be”, to fully appreciate this poem. |
