I Am The Essence

In everything you sing or say,
In every word
That your mouth releases
I am there, and there I’ll stay.

For we share something
That nobody else does:
My thoughts are yours
And you’re my voice.

Tied by such a strong
But invisible thread.
Pain that cuts,
Love that hurts…

Hopes that come and go
Shades and lights
Peace and fights…

One heart
One mind
One essence.

In everything you sing or say
I am there and there I’ll stay.
