-=I Am=-

I bleed, because my wounds are still fresh
I scream, to get the hatred from my chest
I cry, to hear the sound of tears mixing with flesh

I destroy, to watch it grow anew
I breathe, if only but to breathe for tomorrow
I sing, in hopes that my mistress Destiny be kind to me

I wince, at the sound of my own sorrow
I fight, with all that this mortal body will allow
I hate, because it is the fire that feeds me

I feel, though my heart is worn and tired
I see, only what my eyes will allow
I taste, salty ebbings across tired cheeks

I bleed, because I am only human
I scream, because I am the only one who knows the truth
I cry, to hear the sound of forgotten hope.


I am, as I was, but can no longer be.
