(Verse 1)
The doctor said, “You’re not bipolar,”
No raging storm, no sudden trial.
But still I feel this silent fire,
A restless ache that won’t expire.
(Pre-Chorus)
So what am I, then, if not the rain?
A shadowed soul, a lingering pain.
Searching for a truth I can’t see,
A mystery inside of me.
(Chorus)
What do I have then?
If not the storm within?
A fragile heart, a tangled mind,
A story I can’t define.
What do I have then?
If not the dark and light?
Just a whisper in the night,
Trying to find my way.
(Verse 2)
The mirror shows a different face,
A quiet struggle I can’t replace.
Every thought, a fleeting flame,
A restless dance, a silent name.
(Pre-Chorus)
So what am I, then, if not the rain?
A shadowed soul, a lingering pain.
Seeking answers in the wind,
A story deep within.
(Chorus)
What do I have then?
If not the storm within?
A fragile heart, a tangled mind,
A story I can’t define.
What do I have then?
If not the dark and light?
Just a whisper in the night,
Trying to find my way.
(Bridge)
Maybe I’m more than words can say,
More than labels or dismay.
A soul in motion, undefined,
A truth I’m yet to find.
(Outro)
So I’ll keep walking, step by step,
Through shadows deep, I won’t forget.
What do I have then?
I’m still becoming me.

A Rose By Any Name
Just for you, my sweet, A red rose to start your week, To show that I care. [Author's note: This rose bloomed overnight. It weas so perfect in form , I had to send it to someone to remind them I was thinking about them. Out of that came this vey impromptu Haiku.]

It's so frustrating when we don't have an answer as to why we are a certain way. Loved your song!
