TO BE



I want to be, in every way, satisfying

I want to be to you, a love undying

I want to be the mist you feel in the air

I want to be the wind that rustles through your hair

I want to be the thought that makes you warm inside

I want to be the reason that you feel so alive

I want to be the scent that you get from a flower

I want to be the one from whom you draw your power

I want to be in every breath you take

I want to be your first thought every time you wake

I want to be the one that sends your heart into flight

I want to be your last thought when you lay down for the night

I want to be the seed from which everything will grow

I want to be the one to help you reap what you sew

I want to be the whisper that you hear in the wind

I want to be the one you turn to when you turn to a friend

I want to be the singing that you hear from the birds

I want to be the name you call when at a loss for words

I want to be the sunlight that shines and warms your face

I want to be the one that makes your heart want to embrace

I want to be as soothing as a gentle-babbling brook

I want to be the one that makes you beam with just a look

I want to be colors that you see in the autumn trees

I want to be the one who can always make you free

I want to be the waves that crash onto your shore

I want to be the uncharted land you can explore

I want to be your sunrise as well as your sunset

I want to be a person that you are glad that you have met

I want to be the love in every poem you ever read

I want to be, in every way, everything you’ll ever need

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
