i do not follow
nor do i lead
any more,
i shed tears
when tears deserve
to be shed,
i stand again
at last.
as they say
clouds only move
for the wind
and wind, after all,
is master to drifters;
master to clouds, yes --
also to dying leaves,
dust
and falling snow.
i am not wind.
neither am i cloud,
nor leaf,
nor dust
-- i am not falling snow.
i now glow when one of mine shine
directly at me,
i respond.
when i too shine, i now know,
all that are mine
glow in return,
they too respond.
this pleases me again
-- finally.
this is why
i do not lead
nor do i follow
now.
i do not follow
