I Am

I am a prayer, a culmination of body, mind and soul
I am history, a lineage, kingdoms and families
I am a cry in the dark, a shadow lurking beneath broken dreams
I am selfish. I am shackled
I am the tragedy of modern society
I am a constant battle, a competition, a race

Yet, I am hopeful

I am more than a grade, more than a simple number, a soul in slumber
I am cold, hungry, stressed
Yet I am bold, ready, though pressed, silent
I am a trumpet blast, high above the clouds
I am selfless, joyful and jubilant

I am actively passive and passively active
I am none, yet all
I am a prayer
