Tell me one more time, I forgot

Who am I to you
When I say those words
That I want to say
What do you hear
Do they sing and play
How do your lips move
When I show my heart
Where do your eyes stare
After I paint my art
Is there an after thought
Of what I mean to you

If I'm just an echo
Of your own desires
Your own self worth
Are the seductive fires
Then my efforts in knowing you
are like the affirmations of the ego
The shadows from light
The memory of moments ago
And I am only a reminder
That you are still desired
If I’m just an echo.
