I am but a broken yet dying breed
I am the roots, growing from my fathers seed
I am inexistent without the love that I seek
I am the whole world, but only that which I speak
I am the saint, no I am the extorter
I am a whole, made up by four quarters
I am so simply, but complicated at best
I am the host, but live as a guest
I am the anger that keeps you all sane
I am the happiness that causes more pain
I am the lost, even with my path paved
I am the beast, my rage will stay caged
I am but a human, the flesh and the blood
I am the angel, but never resided above
I am the belief, that gives truth to all lies
I am the life, the reason it all dies
I am not of this world, no I am not from this time
I am still a believer of things left behind
I am the love, the thin line before hate
I am the freedom, the reason for fate
I am a non-believer, the calling for faith
I am the outcast, why wont I retaliate
I am all peace, divided by war
I am infinity, but I always crave more
I am so selfish, yet I give all that I am
I am who I am, I will never be set
I am who I am, don't you ever forget
About the Creator
Michael Benhayoun
Writing became an outlet for me; My childhood wasn't easy, as I'm sure some can relate. At 8 I was adopted by my Great Aunt and Uncle who became my second set of parents. I was encouraged to write and now, it's how I say what can be said!
