Power of Me

I am but a simple woman

with simple wants and needs

forced to know the omens

into despair I recede

I am but a simple friend

wanting ever so more to be more

I wish his heart I could mend

but in this life, I myself am torn

I am but a simple person

so long had I been not myself

my pain continues to worsen

I find that being myself grants great wealth

I am but a simple lover

wanting only to be loved

but I shan't ever find another

for I have seen the lie of lust

I am but what I am

just simple and never more

than what I am

and this in simplicity, I adore
