I am quiet;
I am soft;
I am endless as the night.
I am bitter;
I am sweet;
I am more and less than fright.
I am quick;
I am fleeting;
Warm as death and cold as knives.
I am burning;
I am freezing;
In this cycle we call life.
Life is quiet;
Life is endless;
Life is bitter;
Life is sweet.
Life is quick and
Life is fleeting;
Life is all I want and need.
Stars are stars,
The ocean, water;
Fish are fish
Beneath the sea.
Birds are birds,
Their wings are fleeting;
Feathers high
As are my dreams.
