I am

[milemke08]

I am the truth when all your hear is lies.
I am the proof, look into my eyes.
I am the youth, like tomorrows bride.
I am the moon, only alive at night like dreams that flee at dawns first light.

I am your wants, your desires and dreams,
Why do you scheme for material things?
It's not the house or the accounts that make you a king;
but the revolutions and revelations you bring.
So make sure you leave a name for the world to sing.

I am the drum that beats in your chest,
A holy knight. His sword and his crest.
I am the blood that courses through your veins,
and when you're gone I'll be the dust of your remains.
I am the air that fills your lungs with every breath,
'til the reaper comes and lays you to rest.

I am the collective thinking of the entire human race,
the connective piece that holds time and space in place.

It's a good read and has been well edited to here. Do you want to play with it some more? If you do you could try to edit out the conversational tone of the piece by trying to make the lines more declarative. ie: " So make sure you leave a name for the world to sing" could be "Leave a name for the world to sing." Almost every line could be shortened. Not sure it makes it better, but it might be fun. Cheers!
