Whisper in the Night

I am a whisper in the night.

I am a candle filled with light.

I am a spirit in the mist.

I am a fling of the wrist.

I am consciousness in the dark.

I am a child at the park.

I am the wind and the breeze.

I am the rivers and the seas.

I am the one who has naught.

I am the freeman who has wrought.

I am love and I am hate.

I am the open and closed gate.
