I am One

I am one

I am an insignificant one

In a sea of 7 billion, I am one

I am a grain of sand

I am one drop of water in the grand ocean

I am a speck of dust on an old bookshelf

Of endless planets, I am on one

To the known and unknown, I am one

Tiny, insignificant, irrelevant

One simply does not matter

What is the point of being one?

One snowflake in a snowstorm

Why am I one?

I’d like to matter

I’d like to be more than just one

More than just two

I want to be the sand

I want to be the grand ocean

I want to be a part of something

I need to matter

I need to be remembered on this earth

but do I really?

I’m one

Special, unique, different

I am a snowflake, one of a kind

I am the warm sand on the beach

I am the majestic ocean

I am more than a speck of dust

I am a part of the world that is today

I have no need to be remembered as a hero

I will be remembered because I am special

I am me

I am an individual

I do matter

I am one

And I am proud to be just one

I can make a difference in this huge universe

I may be one

Tiny, insignificant, irrelevent

But I am special, unique, and different

No one is the one that is I .
