i am...

i am...

       used up bruised up as a pear in a punching bag
  or at least once upon a
       time was once the enemy but now
 is now all i have

yes.

                acceptance
cures the doldrums way of the day-to-day
           and no, it's not so simple yet
the more one tries, the more happiness pries,
     and yes
i am i am "i am" said mankind
     crawling up from out the muck and ooze
  oh, life succeeds, we'll triumph, yes,
             the world's blooming,
             life is triumphant.

*muah*
