I am

What I am, but another lost soul in your eyes; Floating through your streams, dancing in your skies. Forever lost in your abyss, forever chained to your cries.

Do you see, I am your epiphany, your thoughts and dreams; Your essence rotten in a tree. I feel your pain, you loss, your gain. I see your failings, your flights, I am your days, and your nights.

I am the light in your wake, so pure and perfect; Shinning brightly for your own sake. I am your calm, your stitching to your seams. I am the beautiful flower, in all of your dreams.

Cant you tell, I am the cloud when you fell. I bring your swift ease, when lost in chaos seas.

More still, I am your darkness, your fear and anger; Despair and distress. I rub the salt in your wounds, dig your graves with rusted spoons. I am the torment and temptation. Sweet desire to your damnation.

Taste my sweet and sour, bitter sweet; Feel my arms as I embrace you, then let you fall to your feet. I am the loneliness you always feel, and the line that brings you to saftey with hopeful real.

I am the one you let get away, and the one you lead you astray. I am the face of every lover, and the arms of a lost mother. I am the sand and I am the sea; I am your confinement and I am your free.

I am your story, your rise and your fall.

Don't you see, I am your all.

So here I am, to bring you to your knees. Torture your soul, bring your mind to ease. You are mine, and I am yours, to sail forever through life's shores.

[K.C. Zbryk]

this is incredable. The flow that you've found for this poem is pristine. The duality to the poem makes it feel all the more sincere. The way that you captured the relationship, showed how both have equal parts to play, makes this an amazing piece. One of your best so far.

[Vinod Kumar U K]

Very nice thread, like it.

[An owl on the moon]

A vast and intimate dance of life.. every color and note painted and played over time.. You weave such wonders of the elements.. some gentle.. some fierce.. and all within, without.. Two merged together and swifting over the seas as one.. Brilliant..

[Kenneth The Poet]
