I Am

(And ever has it been known that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.

Kahlil Gibran)

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

I am the unlived dream

waiting to gather wings

and fly across your soils.

 

 

I am also the unborn thirst

seeking to seep deep

into your roots.

 

 

I am your footsteps

treading softly

in my muse.

 

 

I am that thick smoke spiraling

towards heaven’s gates.

When your pyre was quietly lit

 

 

I am also the grey ash

languishing on this wasted Earth.

 

 

 

I am

A COMPLETE YOU

and…..

AN EMPTY ME…
