Self-Contained

I don’t want to be a writer—

I am writing.

I don’t want to be a poet—

I am poetry.

I don’t need to make music—

I am harmony.

I don’t need an audience

To be entertained, and

I don’t need opinions

To create.

I don’t need my love

To be reciprocated

To feel it’s warmth

Rest upon my soul—

I am self-contained
