what i am

I am worth more than the power of a thousand gleaming suns that it takes to get your attention

I am worth loving wholly and deeply, poetically and passionately

I am worth giving the beautiful things in life, gold and intricacies

I am worth more than average **** and quick slamming into

I am deserving of rose petals and soft red lighting, slow motion tracing of my frame and delicate looks of consuming affection

I am deserving of all the words and sonnets and letters and limericks,

Of cherry trees planted in my honor and stars bearing my namesake

I am not the crumbling Berlin Wall or the heartbreak of war

I am not loneliness embodied or vagrants on the ***

I am royalty and compassion and organic kindness

I am the sweet and salty breeze blowing from the east and the golden blood of a sunset in the west

I am a galaxy and you are just a star

I am everything that you don't ******* deserve
