Who I Am

Isaiah Mejia

WHO I AM by Isaiah Mejia 

I cry, yet I’m still smiling 

I’m falling, but I’m still standing 

I’m screaming, yet I’m silent 

I’m bleeding, but I’m trying to heal 

I’m dying, yet I’m living 

When there is war, pain and misery, 

I keep peace, pleasure, and hope. 

And everytime there is a shatter, 

I go back and find those lost, broken pieces 

And put them back together 

Once again 

There is no point in chewing a bullet 

Believe me, I’ve tired 

There is no point is falling into hell itself 

Believe me, I’ve tired 

There is no point in cutting my lines 

Believe me… 

I’ve tried… 

------------------------------------------- 

I run and I run and I run 

Yet, I’m still falling: 

I always fall. 

I dust off the dirt 

I wipe my blood 

I pick up the pieces that are broken in an infinite, constant loop

And I continue to run 

I look into the mirror 

And I see endless mistakes 

I look into the mirror 

And I see infinite scars 

I look into the mirror 

And I see a 

I’m weak, yet I’m going and fighting till my last breath I’m scared, yet I keep the ever burning, warm, comforting flame going I’m broke, yet I am still piecing myself together again I’m trying, but I’m doing 

I fight, yet I fall 

I fall, but I fight 

I find, yet I lose 

I lose, but I find 

I am human 

I am Z 

I am
