I can hear your hearts cry, kiss your tears good-bye and say hello to a new smile that will adorn your heart forever. Never worry if I never hear you, I am always close as the breath that you breathe.

I can hear your thoughts that you are thinking when you think that I do not. I stand beside you when you feel alone. I hold your hand. When the wind blows, I am in the coolness of the breeze that envelopes you. I can see the things you cannot see; I can be who you want me to be to you, and for you. I am in your dreams; I will never leave you.

I can hear the things you want to say but are afraid to say them. I can hear your screams on the inside that are afraid to come out. I can feel the pain in your heart that you have carried for so many years. I can hear you because I am you. I have always been you since the day you were born, before you were born. Yes, I am you. Will you accept me the way that I am, or will you try to change me with things that are not good for my body? Will you appreciate the master piece that I am, that you are? Do not change me, do not change you. Be you because I am you. ©2022
