Full circle
I’ve been through poverty
I’ve been through wealth
I’ve been through sickness and
I’ve been through health
I’ve been a murderer
I’ve been a Saint
I’ve been a lover and
I’ve been full of hate
I’ve been a woman and
I’ve been a man
I’ve been a mother, father, child,
An old man
I have been praised and
I’ve been put down
I have been burned and
I have been drowned
I have been juror
I have been judged
I’ve paid for my crimes
Or traits called as such
I have been strong
And I have been weak
I have shed tears
Of joy on my cheek
I have known sadness
I have known pain
I have known great love
And loving in vain
I have heard laughter
I’ve tasted a kiss
I’ve felt caressing
I’ve seen all of THIS
I’ve been an angel
A foe and a friend
I am a fiend
Stalking you till the end
I am a goddess
I am a god
The core of my Being
Is the Energy of Love
Lived so many lives and
I have learned so much
From people that touched me
From people I’ve touched
I’ve been in Heaven
I’ve been in Hell
But I’m glad that I lived them
I’ve lived them all well
It’s time to let go now
It’s time to be free
Go back where I came from
Please, don’t remember me.circle
