Can I Be?

I pay attention to you, even when you don\'t think I do.  

I listen to you even when you aren\'t speaking.  Your words fall like air enough for me to breathe.  

My words in thought fall in my heart.  

I watch you from a separate distance enough for you to wonder where I am.  

Can you find me?  Are you even searching?  

Am I your lost thing you forget about until I return.  

Where am I placed within you?  Am I in the back part of mind?  I fear to be there;  Can I be elsewhere?  

Can I be beside you in your precious thoughts, the ones you speak aloud;                                     Can I be apart of the memories you create, the memories you are bound.
