Who Am I? Poem by Eva Clara Harahap

Who Am I? ...
Am I a stone? ...
Only the still water flow over me...
Am I a little rose? ...
Only thorn miss me...

I want to be the Sun..
How can I shine? ...
He didnt tell me....
As it supposed to be...

I want to be the wind...
Crawling hurriedly among the trees...
She hide from me...
Fear of my question of being....

Rush, rush shriek the bee...
As he is quiet busy...
Bringing honey to life...
He too ignores me...

I sit with a peacock...
Beautiful by its nature...
She remain silence...
As she know not her destiny...

I left with nobody..
As I am nobody...
Then, i shall find me...
Not in a rose's thorn..
Not in a hurried wind...
Not in a shrieking bee..

I shall find me in me...
It suffers me...
It even put my soul cry...
But I am not like anybody...
Just me, and no other...
