C arefully I walk this edge
balancing eternally between
my sacred nurturing soul
and my burning hearts’s needs
know I will not be confined
staying always in motion
an eternal ebb and flow
perpetual like the seas
my spirit is amorphous
bathed in the rays of change
expanding unrestrained
seeking purpose and freedom
I will not be defined
my nature is fluid
my essence is turbulent
deep and ever changing
my heart in constant surge
ignores the prevailing winds
seeking balance that is mine
to change at need — at will
you need not seek me
for I am always here
but do not name me
I will not be yours
