I Am

by Moe Elzubeir - Not entered

I am the sun, the moon, I am everything
I am the strength derived from within your strength
I am the mushroom gray sky over your head
I am the anguish you felt and the blood that you bled

Color me gray and I'll be as dead a rock
Kick me up and down the streets as you walk
Cover my eyes and bang my head against your walls
Smear my nose against your shoes as I wait for your fall

All I see is gray and I think I'm insane
You've kill me once you can do it again
Teenage angst once engraved deep in within me
Now as cold as the top of a mountain above what you can see

Confusion so colorful it's blinding
Open mountain skies improsining me
Too much freedom it's suppressing me
It's too beautiful it's depressing me

Reason for writing:

    Wrote this at a time when everything just seemed wrong. Things are still wrong, but it doesn't matter really. It's when you have everything but then you realize that you have nothing. 
If you dig the poem then you'll understand what I'm talking about.
