I Am A King Comments

I have lost my crown, Not a king and not a folk, I am without crown a king, Like a poet without poem

Anger and attachment to none, Only pain in my deepest heart, Pain of losing my dukedom, Loneliness is the only way

Only for a night or a day, I am a king of my own mind, The choice is mine and it is real, I am a king for I have lost my crown, open to the surface of life

I am a king and it is true to me, Within my soul the stars blink, The moon shines with Joy, The day and night alter, I am a shrine within my temple

What a loss to feel like a king who has lost his crown. Then you regain the crown of love, a happy outcome. The poem oscillates between loss and gain beautifully.
