Flesh and Bones


Thoughts, thoughts circulate
Flesh, flesh and bones, strip away
Blood, blood pumps through veins
Heart, heart pounds fast

I am bare, I am naked
I am but a floating soul
I am, in my essence
I am without entity

A stage, it seems, forms beneath me
And spectators, surround me
Honesty in all its rawness
Overcloud the floor

I am, a journal
I am, a pirate chest
I am, a coffin, a garden
I am the yearning of humanity

Vulnerable, enduring
Lost and loving
Harmonious, musical
Pitiful, comical

I am, flesh and bones
Flesh and bones, stripped away
I am, adrenaline
Adrenaline coursing through veins
I am, awareness
Awareness of wise souls
I am, humanity.
