I.

I would be in your head,
but only as a thought
I would be the inspiration,
but not the instrument;
I would be the stone you see,
on the way to the larger mountain;
I would be the short breath you take,
when you dive into the ocean;
I would be the dapple of sunlight,
as you open your closed eyes;
I would be that lonely voice,
when you listen to yours alone;



I would not be what you want,
but what you need.
