By Gerda Heiaso
(Magickal name: Ussai Rosheia
—the name is old high German for “wind and love” and “love and light and love”).
Written in the year 1841
I walk in shadows and I walk in light
I am the night and I am the day
I am a goddess and I am a god
I am the good and I am the bane
I am the heaven and I am the earth
I am the stars and I am the moon
I am man and I am woman
I am girl and I am boy
I am mother and I am father
I am student and I am teacher
I am one and one
And one and one become
We are half and half
And we become one
Together we are
We are the ones
We are the only ones
We are forever and the end
We are all that lives and dies
We are what will be reborn
We are the ones who will stay
For we are the essence of all
And we are what is
So we shall remain
In the darkness and the light
