I Am Nothing but Still Oddly Important


I am nothing,
But still oddly important.

There are friends of mine
that do not know me

who are still the
brightest signposts to my soul.

The world can seem
to be
so small
it

Seems to fly by
faster
than my
eye can
ever see,

And yet a frown that
comes from the antipodes
creates

A gale far larger than
my thoughts will ever know.

My heart is full of joy and
sorrow both,

My brain and heart share
mastery of
my way.

Contradictions balanced in the
rhetoric of life,

Teaching me to live in love
each day.
