I am not the peace of the Lotus
Nor the pride of the Oak
I am just the way I am, a secret untold.
I am not a perfect blossom of cherries under a misty moon
Nor the cry of wolves into the night as fears bloom.
I am not made of laughter nor am I made of tears
I am just this moment, be it what it may be.
I am not Light nor Darkness but somewhere in between
Where the winds whisper to Fire and Water.
I am not a butterfly nor am I the flower
But it is there that I dwell, in their longing for each other.
I am not the steady rock or the moving river
But I am the way they rub
Against each other and make the song of the stream.
Now you may judge or you may laugh but still
I will become all I can be
For I am this and I am that
My truth is not found in answers
And I just want to seek.
