the I

Take away the ‘me’ the ‘you’

The ‘us’

It is I. And I remain.

Stilled and stirred.

Breathtakingly beautiful for I am the light

In the coast

Singing of love

Singing of truth

Singing of freedom

It is I

Who you kill

It is I

Who you save

It is I

Who you live

You are the I

In the darkness you traverse

You are your own light.

Love this, this is very well written and creative, powerful as well.

Your last line says it all. A powerful message in a few simple words and lines. You convey so well hope, strength, and resilience in this poem. Such an uplifting message we don't see often enough in the Cafe. Nice work!
