I am a book


I am what I am

An unopened book,

Withholding surprises.

Patient in revealing secrets.

 

I am what I am

A fictional hero.

Durable courage,

Balanced with sympathy

 

I am what I am

A lesson, a moral

Words of advice easily spoken

Wisdom overflowing

 

I am what I am

A dangerous, impossible journey.

Winding turns,

Unexpected twists.

 

I am what I am

An unopened book,

Awaiting its next reader
