Did what it can Shattered my existence Where do I begin? How do I pick these pieces? There is no ground Under the feet It’s all water The roof over my head Has blown off Whatever I held close Simply floated away Some with water Other with the wind How do I get my life back? How do I prove I am me? How do I show? Where my mud house stood?
It’s all gone Either with water Or with the wind Did you hear howling winds? Did you see the waves rise? Those uprooted trees? My uprooted life? No, you wouldn’t notice You were all locked in Blind and deaf Till they cleared it all There is no sign left Of howling winds Of broken homes Of my lost past I too ask Am I me?
