Dancing with the Tao

Do you think that I care?
Do you think that I should?
Has this life devoured my soul
So there's nothing left but a shell?

Someone once told me that I truly danced with the Tao
That almost equal amounts of Light and Darkness
Swirled within me, each seeking dominance over the other

So where is my balance, now?
Where is my anchor?
How do I keep myself, from being swept up in this torrent?
Even now, I feel myself... slipping under the tide

NO! I say NO!
I will NOT allow this!
I will NOT bow before this chaos
I will NOT quit, give up, or in any way concede defeat

I will be my own anchor.
My own self will be what holds me to my course
Stumble, stagger and fall, though I may
Still will I reach my destination

This one lesson
This one truth
This one question
What do I mean, when I say the word, "I"?
