I AM

The me that I am today is a different me then you have ever seen before.

I am more and I am less. I am the deep breath and the breathless laughter, the residue of tears 

down lonely cheeks.

I am the sound of air filling and emptying filling and emptying filling and emptying your lungs as

you fall asleep.

I am the sunlight that shines through your broken windows and the pattern spilled onto your face in the dark, the creaking of the bed in the night as I roll into you.

I am the soft groan and whispered moan as your fingers cross the skin on my back.

I am the waiting. The terrible the beautiful and heart wrenching waiting. Be it for sleep, for you or for life to begin again.

I am the whisper of I love you and the vein straining scream of I NEED YOU, the red cheek glance of I want you and the tear soaked realization when I actually have you.

I am the breath leaving trembling lungs and the bravery or stupidity or BOTH at the promise of forever. 

I AM THE FOREVER.

I am the arms outstretched, the leap into the unknown and the promise to catch you if you fall.

I am all that I have become because you see me as no one else has or bothered to uncover.

I am what I am and that is enough because in the most honest and simple way to say all I have said, 

I am yours.
