I am What I am

I am What I am

A Poem by Yemaya Theresa

Emotion, Passion living in fascination.

Of what this world has to offer.

Adventurous souls on path to nowhere.

Into the woods we go searching for something.

What is it we see, in the beauty of ordinary things.

Looking to the Moon for answers, & finding only light.

Not seeing it all for what it is.

What is it you seek in the darkness of night?

Investigating the dark corners of our souls.

What is it that we find in the recess of our mind.

Never knowing for sure if the path we walk is real.

Searching for answers we already know.

We fail to see that we are who we are.

Inevitably changing from day to day.

Refusing to look within to show us the way.

Trying to understand the concepts of our minds.

Never fully digesting what life is showing.

Trying desperately to make sense this Human condition.

When there is just on thing we need to understand.

I am what I am.

I love it.
I seem to search for things to be enthusiastic about, but I might as well not. My enthusiasm comes from someplace inside me, and I'd like very much to know how to manipulate it. :)
Have fun.

i really like the line... into the woods we go searching for something.... it really brings home wandering, not being able to know where to go... i really like how u question everything about people and end it with what people need to understand... i couldnt agree with you more on this statement, really good write, keep it up, thanks for sharing
