Before the moment I open my eyes
I notice you
I notice you
You wake with me
When I move
When I move
You move with me
Many times I lay longer with you
Many times I lay longer with you
Holding you in the softness of my hands
Holding you in my mind’s memories
Wondering how long you will stay with me
Wondering what you will reveal to me
Wondering what you will reveal to me
Today, you are simply a sensation, an object of my senses
You are a symptom of my imagination
You are a symptom of my imagination
I no longer shove you away
I no longer numb you with society’s prescriptions
I no longer numb you with society’s prescriptions
I no longer despise you or deny you
You are nothing separate from me
You are nothing separate from me
You are nothing to be hated
You are nothing
You are nothing
You are part of who I am
You are part of how I am… in this world
You are part of how I am… in this world
So every step I take
I take with you
I take with you
I embrace you as my own
I love you
I love you
Just as you are
For as long as you need to be there
For as long as you need to be there
For as long
As you need to be me
As you need to be me
