Define:me
me: used by a speaker to refer to himself or herself as the object of a verb or preposition
but how does one
define
me
a being
not contained within the boxes
of societies limits, their games, their standards
a being
limitless
reaching into the stars
to pull down the heavens
a being
sometimes powerless
crushed under the weight
of cruel fate
and yet
still alive
because
the fear of death outweighs
the weight of fate
me
ever changing
something different every day
as small as a paper cut
as large as a broken heart
too shattered to pick up the pieces
and yet
i always seem to repair it
some way or another
in the land of empty promises
and lost books
and me
the essence of fall weather,
of a warm cup of tea held in numb hands,
the gentle strum of a guitar,
and fingers laced together
me
undefined
because
a definition does not leave room for change
but I am change
I do not fit in a dictionary
You will not find me in words
instead
you shall find me in
the gentle rustle of the leaves
the end of a good book
the smile of an old friend
and
you shall find me
within everything.
