Measured by my worth
Do they think of assets?
Measured by my value
Do they think of wealth
Measured by my achievements
Do they think of status
Measured by my failing
Do they think of poverty
Measured by their norms
Do they think they shall see me
Measured by my potential
Do they think of dreams unfulfilled
Measured by my days
Do they think of me at all
Measure for measure
Do they think I can be found
Therefore, Where am I,
In loyalty, Mercy, humility
Measure for measure I am
Somewhere behind the eyes
And between my ears
Measured by the heartbeat
From invisibility to visible
I shall be free.
