I am me and nothing more.
I wonder to what end is man's
Distant shore.
I hear the soundless whispered
plea of death's strange melody,
I see rain and thunderstorm
Everlasting life un-born.
I want love, life, and freedom
Come infinite and right.
I am me and nothing more.
I pretend to be a player upon the stage,
My age, and all that is in between.
I feel nothing and everything all at once,
Blinding inocence.
I touch my soul and it cries and glows
And away it flies and goes.
I worry never more, what good would it do?
What power does it hold?
I cry and plea,
Life be sweet, no sour, a soul that
can't be beat.
I am me and nothing more.
I understand what I am supposed to
And explore what I am not.
Learning all the while, secret plots.
I say soundlessly, secrets of my own.
Not yours to hear
At least not yet, I fear.
I dream worlds beyond imagining.
I try my best at everything
And my worst at nothing.
Sometimes when I lose, I win.
I hope in all hopes, dreams and wishes
Of a child's delight
From youth and kisses.
I am me and nothing more.
