When Identity Comes

My nature is good,

you gave me that,

and I am eternally grateful.

There’s nothing I can do,

I’m there with you,

watching my old self dying.

Your blood runs.

Being what you were born to be

your tears whisper,

witness it was all for me.

A response to this

a choice made of love

so I could feel your floating kiss.

I collapse inside.

You think I’m worth it,

know I’m worth it,

believe I’m worth it.

Thus, I am yours,

I wander in you.

I could touch the stars if I wanted

but my desire is right here.
