I need no reminder.
You are who you are.
I know you by heart.
I need no glory.
I do not care if the world ever hears my name.
I only need to hear it as a whisper fallen off wide lips in the night.
I am acustumed to sharing you.
You are who you are.
I am not so impressed with THAT you.
What impresses me is the you underneath.
The you that brings trembling fingers to my lips.
The you that laughs with me and holds conversations with the stars.
I need no spot light.
I am content to shine for you and only you.
You.
You shine for the world to see.
But, not tonight.
Tonight, I take you into me and we shine for each other.
