Me

They say that when dusk falls
it’s a dreamer’s paradise.
But dreams always fade away when the day breaks.
I don’t want to be a dream.

They say that when a storm rises,
it can kill a million waves.
But even a storm gives way to silence.
I don’t want to be a storm.

They say that fire runs blind
reducing the mightiest structures to ashes.
But even fire can be pacified.
I don’t want to be a fire.

They say that a golden thought
can change the world.
But even thoughts give way to new ones.
I don’t want to be a thought.

They say that love has the power
to transform demons into angels.
But even love can be suppressed.
I don’t want to be love.

But the only thing invincible
that nothing and no one can change
is what I want to be…
ME.
