• I am not a calm lake
    I am the roaring sea

    I am not spring showers
    I am a hurricane

    I am not the sun
    I am the moon

    I am not a warrior
    I am a barrier

    I am not a dainty spiderweb
    I am the feather of an eagle

    I am not a house plant
    I am a wild rose

    I am not a rat
    I am a quiet mouse

    I am not a puppy dog
    I am a wolf

    I am not hot, hot summer
    I am the cold snow of winter

    I am not perfect
    I am unique

    I am not a normal person
    I am me

    And yet all people see is the outside me.
