WHO AM I HURTING?

Who am I hurting by just being me?

I don´t hurt man, beast, bird nor tree,

Who am I hurting by just saying no?

World keeps turning & winds still blow.

Who am I hurting by saying, “let me be?”

When I say it, wild beasts still run free,

Who am I hurting? Tell me if you know,

Because breezes still blow & seas still flow.

Being in my skin, mind & my own little soul,

Tell me who I´m hurting, when all´s been told?

The sun still shines if I don´t do your bidding,

Moon wanes, waxes & doesn’t fall skidding.

Tell me, who am I hurting by just being me?

I plead to one & all, to please leave me be,

And when I say “no”, please heed & listen,

Because just as I am, the stars still glisten.
