I Am I am the sunlight, embracing with warm delight And the icy cold river of blood turning hearts to stone I am the guiding star in darkest hour And the false beacon to the lost wanderer I am the shelter in a storm And the desolation in the crowd I am the strength behind life itself And death to the irrational hopeful I am the Sun, the Stars and Moon The Universe and Heaven's door Or the gate to personal Hell Crushing lost souls with innermost fears I am the Seducer of mind, body and soul Lifting up for starry flight Or pulling down to Devil's lurid pools I am Angel and Demon I am Light and Darkness Past, Present and Future The silent muse within the poet's heart The rage of lunacy The whispers of the wind, singing sweet lullaby The storm behind words, swift arrows of hurt I am distance and closeness Sweetest dream and worst nightmare Comfort and grief, happiness and pain Destiny and yearning desire Despair and salvation I am the shivering delight of burning passion I hold a grip upon the fragile heart I am fantasy and reality I am the one solid certainty of life The rock to build a house on I am Home I am Life's Symphony Life's secret melody within I determine your tune I am to live and die for For I alone have the power I am Your heart Your mind Your soul I am you For you are me Therefore I am I am Love [This message has been edited by Munda (edited 03-03-2001).] |

I really love this! Yes, love is all of these things, and you describe it perfectly. Thanks for posting! "Men judge generally more by the eye than by the hand, for everyone can see and few can feel."-Machiavelli |

It seems almost like some sort of a mystery, even though at the end it says "I am love," I can't help but feel it has some other meaning to it... is it about some sort of religious figure, perhaps? Well the poem was also very good. Quite interesting and unique. Good job. ~Allan If I had your eyes, I'd be blind. For I can only see out of my own. ~~Carly Van Dort |

Munda, You are, and so much more. I like the "yin and yang." I guess love can be both good and bad, but even when it's bad, it's good. You expressed that very well. Gene |
