Floating in gravity

January 29, 2014

I listen to my mother

I listen to my father

I listen to my sister

Who do they listen to?

I help my neighbor

I help my teacher

I help my friend

Who do they help?

I give my love

I give my heart

I give my brain

What else do I have to give?

I feel lost

I feel cornered

I feel insignificant

Who else feels this way?

I am different

I am loud

I am a double-edged sword

Who else should I be?
