I Am


I am a tree

Always growing, rooted deep

Bearing the fruits of the spirit even when my soul is weak

I am a swiss knife

Many features, a thousand uses

But when abused, the outcome is ruthless

I am a math test

Complicated, often neglected to be understood

Problems eager to be solved, if only someone could

I am a catalyst

Precipitating change

Feeding the hungry spirits, though they cry out in vain

I am a girl

I stand all alone

Changing the world with a hopeful tone
