I Am...

I am like the air on a warm summer day.
I am that cold drink of water when you
Need to cool down. I am that one ray
Of sunshine when you see that blue
Sky becoming cloudy and grey. Your
Eyes on the horizon because that is
Where I will be. The slam of the door
Because we both know what that says
To the whole world. The tears that form
Because we know that we are not built
To be perfect or to be a part of the norm.
I am love that is soft and safe as a quilt
During all of those cold winter nights.
I am that strong warrior that will cause
You to think of everyone who fights
And who the real enemies are because
At the end of every day we are only
Human. I am the thoughts that keep
You sober at 3 AM and a little less lonely.
It is life around us that we sow and reap.
