I Am a Storyteller
I am a storyteller
Living to tell
What I know
What I feel
What I know
Is Real
The truth is
We are all
Living books
Some of us
Are closed
Locked up, put away
Unexposed
Remaining a mystery
Hiding our history
Some of us
Are open
You can read us well
We have no secrets
We live to tell
I am a storyteller
Always telling my truth
So you can see
Yourself in Me
As I see
Myself in you
Everyone has a story to tell
Even those of us
Who hide it well
Our Past, Our Future
Yet to be seen
We were
We are
We will be
New Beginnings
New Endings
All the possibilities
Our Stories
Continue to Unfold
So much
Still Untold
I am a storyteller
Living to tell
What is in my heart
What makes it swell
Like a heavy book
With too many pages
I just want to be
Free
Let it all be known
This is my story
This truth
This truth is imprinted
Inside of Me
And I will
Continue to tell it
Until I am old
I do not care
What I have been told
Because
My Story
Is not merely
the Past pages
It is
A Legacy
That never ages
And though
I will pass
With time
My story
My story shall last
And those who hear it
Will be inspired
By the pages of my life
And after nighttime,
The sun will again rise,
But it will shine brighter
Cause my story was told
And the world
Will always know
Who I am
That I am
A Storyteller
