I am the whisper of the wind,
The wishes in the well.
I am the solitary sailor,
Floating on the swell.
I am the island all alone,
Desolate yet free.
I am the flower in the desert,
The seedling of the tree.
I am the darkness in the stars,
The fire in the heart.
I am the final burning ember,
From which the blaze will start.
I am the shepherd in the hills,
The sacrificial lamb.
I am this and much, much more,
I am that which I am.
