I am
I am stories
I am consciousness
…
A fabrication of Time and Space
A manifestation of Testimony and Will
…
With their words I materialize
With their ideas I cement
…
I am their questions and answers
I am vain aspirations and hopeful dreams
…
Through me philosophies and theories are discussed
Through me tales and fables are recounted
Through me joys and sorrows are remembered
Through me hatred and love are expressed
…
I am Time and Space
I am the Ticking Clock
I am the Corroding Stone
…
Transporting them to the past and future
Transporting them to the confines of earth and vastness of space
…
I am the Voice
I am a Tangible Figure
I am a Phantom Figure
…
Through which objects feel
Through which animals talk
Through which humans ponder
…
I am
I am the Testament of Humanity
I am the Will of Humanity
…
With their emotions liberated
With their creativity explored
With their thoughts recorded
With their memory safeguarded
…
They call me History
They call me Literature
They call me Philosophy
…
I am
I am their Testament of Existence
I am their Will to Live
…
I am their escape from death
Avoiding swift forgetfulness
…
I am their key to immortality
Indulging perpetual remembrance
