    Where I'm From

    I am from the rain

    Breaking the surface of the still pond

    Next to the aging shack

    Housing my broken soul


    I am from the wind

    Coming as quickly as gone

    Never staying

    Never finding where I truly belong


    I am from childhood games

    That never included me

    A spectator

    In life's passing parade


    I am from the fire

    Of my spirit

    Burning with desire

    To find an answer to my prayers


    I am from the shadow

    Creeping where people live

    But never living myself

    Not thought of and not wanted


    I am the essence of nothing

    Never wanted

    Never being cared about enough

    To make enemies
