Yours truly

Remembering the moments lived and appreciating the little ones being made in the present.

'Who are you?' she asks
once in a while, a puzzle,
not always in words, more often
I think, as a challenge to me
daring me to surprise her, a deal
she holds me on to, again
it's not like I can deny her!

I am the chaos in your mind, and
the silence on your lips, I am
the wonder in your eyes, and
the anxiety in your heart, I am
the sound of your footsteps, and
the space between your breathes, I am
the meaning of your smiles and
lessons behind your tears, I am!

You know me all too well
better than anyone else
Isn't that how it's supposed to be?!
I am the paths you travelled
I am the words you chose
I am your creation
I am your life, I am...
Yours truly!
