i'm the wind in your ear,
the goosebumps on your neck.
the ice inside your blood,
the feeling you can't reject.
i'm always on your mind,
but never in your sight.
i'm the solution to your problem,
but the main cause of your plight.
i'm the voice in your head,
but never actually around.
i'm the unsolved mystery,
a book you can't put down.
i'm your image of beauty,
but the catalyst to your pain.
i'm the thing that makes you crazy,
but the sedative that keeps you sane.
i'm the murderer to your heart,
and the stitches that helped you heal.
i'm the constant ache of emptiness,
that lets you know i'm real.
i'm the shadow on a building,
but the source you never find.
i'm the light you shouldn't look at,
the ignorance that makes you blind.
i'm the sparkle in your eyes,
and the happiness in your voice.
i'm the gentleness in your touch,
the reason behind your choice.
i'm your joy and your sorrow,
your happy and your sad.
your jealousy and your peace,
your good and your bad.
i'm the reason that you breathe,
the reason you don't give up.
i'm everything that hurts you,
but also the strength that helps you love.
