I Am

I Am
____________________
I am the wind that brushes your hair
I am the rain that touches your lips
I am the sun that warms your body
Yet
In truth I fail you, my love
The Pedestal that you hold me on
Is an illusion for I’m just a man
But what is true
My heart’s desire for your love
If you let me be your one
I’ll be
The wind, I will become with every breath you take
The rain, I’ll be for each tear of joy from your eyes that we share
For you, I’ll be the sun that burns deep within your soul
Yes, I am just a man not on a pedestal, but just a man in love with you!
