I Am Unique and Alone
I am unique and alone,
a mystery unto myself,
yearning to fathom
what it means
to be solitary yet distinct.
What does it mean
to have someone
truly present for me,
to hear me and hold me
in their deepest regard,
to love me so intimately
that I see myself reflected
in their eyes?
What does it mean
to find strength
through another\'s unwavering support,
when my own reserves wane
and I can no longer stand alone?
What does it mean
to have someone
who dries my tears,
holds me close,
and whispers reassurances
that all will be well?
What does it mean
to have someone show up,
especially in my darkest hours,
to affirm my existence
by declaring to the world
that I am divine,
and the divine
dwells within me?
