As choppy as this may be.....this is who I AM. If I tried to "un-chop" it, then it just wouldn't have been Who I AM  


I AM

I am one who is giving, I am one who lives life full,
I wonder how people in this world can be so down right cruel.~
I hear muted sorrow from the millions who agonize,
I see hope floating in clouds and dancing in the skies.~
I want simply to be happy, to be loved and feel whole,
I am one who is giving, I am one who lives life full.~
I pretend that I am tough and I wear an iron skin,
I feel that iron melting when one really needs let in.~
I touch the breath of the wind, kissed by the sun,
I worry about the day that I will lose a loved one.~
I cry for many reasons, when I do the tears roll,
I am one who is giving, I am one who lives life full.~
I understand that “Living Life” is sheltered for some,
I say take that chance, for tomorrow may never come.~
I dream of the many things I have yet to still do,
I try not to let a day go by with out saying “I Love You”.~
I hope through out life I’ll give as much as I can,
I am one who is giving, living life to it’s fullest, I am!~

Am I loved by my words
Will my vows weather the tide
Bended knees can forsee
all the rhythms of life
And a heart can be held without pride
