I Am
I am Nothing...
I am Everything...
I am all that lies Between...
I am the Days Dawning Light,
I am the Empty Shroud of Night.
I am the Chaos that Corrupts the Mind,
The Serenity ones Heart Aches to Find.
I am the Agonizing Distance between Heart and Soul,
Relentlessly Tormented with Growing Emptiness.
I am the Raging Flames of a Lovers Desire,
The Dying embers, Remnants in Cold Ash.
I am the arms that Cradle you as you Drift to Sleep,
The Lullaby fading into the Peaceful Distance.
I am the Beautiful Image behind Closed Eyes,
The Unforgiving Nightmare that Stitches them Shut.
I am the Blank Parchment laying in Wait,
To be Stained with the Ink of a Poets Sins and Sorrows.
I am Captor of my Soul and Slave to my Heart,
I am the Prison and the Prisoner all in One.
I am the Places that I run to Escape from Myself,
The Dwelling of Impurities Hidden behind Smiling Eyes.
I am the Shadow that Lurks behind, Waiting for you,
The Sunlight you Crave to Touch your Face.
I am the Sweetened Taste of Lies upon your Lips,
The Bitter Regret of Unwanted Truth.
I am the Angel that has Fallen,
The Demon that has Risen.
I am Nothing,
You are Everything,
We are all that lies between...
