A Self Indestructible

just being myself
that is what is left of myself
after everything is
taken away from me
after i am stripped
of my name my honor
my property

there is this soul
that you cannot kill
there is this self
that you cannot destroy

it is
indestructible

there is this thought
that subsists
on its own
eternal motion
