Song of Myself
I am the son of
A man, but I don't
Understand the purpose
Of the plan he has for me,
I am at rest with peace
Even with the people
That despise me,
Cause even when my
Soul vacations from earth,
Who are they, I am a beat
Motivated by the lyrics
Which come from I
And others mouths,
A poetic symphony
About life as it transforms
Through my growth, I am
In love with a queen,
Who's existence trembles
My heart, but speaks at low
Volumes when she is afar,
The silk breeze that flows
Through her hair when I
Stroke it as her skin softens
From affection and melts
Into mine with one kiss,
I am the anger that's
Expressed through music
Of this time, the artist
Rebel against hate and
Discrimination because
The nation doesn't
Believe in them, I am
The air that guides
The ball, following
Through with all I've
Accomplished or desires
That have yet to be
Lived, I am loyal, to my
Family, through the
Adversity, we manage to
Build a brother or
Sisterhood carefree of
Judgement, just laughs
And memories, I am a
Listener who whispers
My own truth, I enjoy life
At night, I embrace the beauty
Of the sea and marvel at
The glare that cast upon it,
I am me, the one fire that
Can live in the rain, the
Silent amongst beautiful
Things...
