Who I Am
Who I Am
I am who I am. I am the vessel Made of the earth And to the earth I will return. I am the soul within Awaiting my journey’s end And the start of life again.
I was born of all who came before me And shaped by those surrounding me. I am the child who once was And the woman who is now.
A thousand hands have molded me; A thousand hearts guide me. Countless souls I visit On my passage through time.
I am the culmination Of my life’s joys and sorrows. I am the sum of all of these. I am their total. I am who I am.
