I AM

a singer without a voice

an actor without a stage

a yogi without a mat

a poet without a page

 

I AM

a teacher with no students

a leader with no followers

a rebel with no army

a sister with no brothers

 

I AM

defined by my looks

defined by my talents

defined by my past

 

I AM

eager

envious

hurting

lost

 

I am

 

i am

 

i

 

i am

nobody

unseen

unheard

ugly

broken

I AM

THE WAY

THE TRUTH

THE LIFE

 

I AM

THE PUREST LAMB

THE PRECIOUS LOVE

THE PERFECT SACRIFICE

 

I AM

WHO CALLS THE BROKEN

WHO CALMS THE SEA

WHO DIED TO RESCUE

 

who died to rescue

 

me

 

I am

not my voice and talents

 

I am

not just what you see

 

I am strong and kind and beautiful

because He lives in me

 

I AM

His precious child

His beloved daughter

His beautiful creation

 

I AM

full of peace

full of hope

full of joy and adoration

 

I AM

not a musician

not my talents

not what I do

nor what I’ve done

 

I AM

Marah.

and I’m the only one.
