you are

you are everything, you are everyone, you are every cliche ...you are the sun you are oxygen, you are in the trees, you are orange leaves, you are cool autumn breeze that spreads across my spine, you are forgotten dreams, you are a glass of wine, you are what reminds, you are fine lines, you are the key, you are a plus sign, you are what girls try to become, you are the why, you are the sum, you are bassdrums, you are a symphony, you are the child too naive to realize that he's on stage, you are every page, you are every book, you are the librarian's glasses, you are classes, that i may or may not have took, you are the stun experienced when things fall into place, you are every race, you are the taste, of fresh produce, you are abuse, escapen, you are an excuse, shaken, you are the noose, breakin', you are the clues, finally taken, you are a puzzle with pieces all aligned, you are dominos lined up right before they fall, you are every hall, you are each phone call, you are the brick wall that kids throw tennis balls against, you are consequence, you are every scent, you are fresh cement, waiting to be written on, you are every song, you are every play, you are Broadway, you are the crowds, you are everything i say, you are SCREAMING LOUD in unallowed places, you are familiar faces, you are a smile after braces, you are untied laces, you are jumping over cracks, you are warm candle wax, you are dark moments lightened by humour, you are rumours being shattered, you are fish, beer battered, you are wishes, when they matter, you are the everafter, you are the former, and the latter, you are the feet in the swimming pool of those who cant swim, you are slim jims, you are macho man randy savage, you are a test above average, you are an ebay feedback rating, you are ice skating, on frozen lakes, you are every birthday cake, and every candle, you are frosted milkshakes, you are socks with sandals, you are being outside the norm, you are insightful vandals, you are anarchy, restrained, you are villains, reformed, you are emcees without champagne, you are Dylan on tour, you are looking down, before you let go, you are a star's glow, you are a peep show, you are every mystery, you are pot-pourri, you are the guarantees that are actually kept, you are the moment you forget why you wept, you are the fizzy beverage that makes one reminisce or accept, you are the first kiss, you are the final step, you are the trace of the past that one must chase, you are realizing that time's too fast, to replace, you are the sun, shining down into an unseen place, you are cliches, you are warmth and grace, you are everyone, that has ever graced, this time and space, here and above, you are everything... ...you are love.
