My Everything

Everything
I hold so dearly
Love so intensely
Adore with my eyes
Enter into my heart
Cr addle in my arms

Everything, I
Sing
Hear
Smile
Enjoy

Everything
That makes
Breathing so much easier
Laughing enjoyable
Fun entertaining
Rainy days, comfortable
Bad hair days, livable

Everything
That defines
Content in my eyes
Peace in dreams
Beautiful moments
Intelligent conversations

I find them
I hug them with my love
I kiss them with my heart
I smile at them with my words
I tear with my longing
I enjoy with every breath

But then
I lose them
so fast
It hurts
It becomes hard to hold
moments bold
heart gone cold

It is hard not to believe
I am to blame
I was too lame
It was all a game
they are all the same

It is hard to look past
it all

Sometimes
I still hear my heart
Calling them
My mind
Shutting them away

Oh mind,
how you try to protect the heart
But at a loss of words and rational
I choose to love and not forget
As they leave and not forgive
And so mind, you try to give
A reason that will have me stand
Firm, able to feel
Able to touch hearts, minds and hands

But I still hear my heart
Calling their name
Then it hurts all over again
The memories all rush in
And i stay
Flooded, by my own thoughts
Betrayed by my own mind
Which stands aside
As I ride
The memories of life
of love, living and strife

Because everything
Is nothing
without something
And tomorrow, another something will come
To join everything I ever knew
Everything I thought I met
And everything will be vast
But with that
I can live
At last

As i wait for more
somethings
To become
my everything
This way
I can't lose everything
