I Am
I am all the pieces of experience
made perfectly unique to fit my form
Hands that never grew much bigger
than those paint covered handprints
for years hanging proudly on the wall
Limbs covered in faded scars tell stories
Of the scrapes and falls along the way
Of steps landing as if in place of daylight
An infinity of night unilluminated met eyes
Drinking in foreign worlds of spoken tongues
An incomplete duality of sound and silence
Echos of a memory linger teasing of a life
That could be have been, if only one less
Piece of the puzzle had not fallen into place
But the borderframe complete, now it's time
Fit the pieces of life inside to discover what lies
Each new edge bringing continous evolution
Which only ends with the last piece bindingly fit
