I am the night that holds you close
until you no longer feel alone.
I am the darkness you continue to seek
welcoming with reaching arms.
I am the one you look to when lost
my hand in yours reassurance enough.
I am who remains by your side
coming to be
when the light leaves your eyes.
I am your hope
your cause for wonder
filled with transfixing awe
as you take from me
feel what it is that you think you need
running your fingers
ever so gently
caress, just so softly
my diamonds scattered throughout
entranced by their beauty
captivated by their purity
not knowing the truth I keep
that you are the reason they bloom
for they are nothing without you
shining, simply for you.
