I am me.
I don't see myself at all
Even more with every fall

I am me.
A mystery in plain sight
A darkness to be shed with light

I am me.
Traveling from destination to destination
Yet I can't find where I truly belong

I am me,
And I can't see
What I'm meant to be.

I am me.
It's time to make a decision.
I ****

Within myself
I search a person
yet unknown to me

Tonight I looked up
and searched for you in the sky
hoping to find you looking down on me
while you slept with sadness dancing behind your eyes.
Tonight I found you way up high
reflecting the sun's light into darkness
I found comfort watching you shine.
Tonight I saw each crater etched into your skin
you didn't try to hide them
you let all of my love in.
Tonight I faced my fears
and I let each one of them go
as your glowing surface uncovered my path
and I found my way home.

I have never written so many poems for one person
I have never wasted so much energy on one person
I have never spent so many hours thinking about one person
I have never spent so many nights dreaming of on person
And I doubt you can say the same
