I know that I am — all that I am.
And all that I am
is full and ripe.

All that I am is standing still,

and bursting with life.

Holding the straining seams of my skin,
my passion and wit
and my sanity in.

Waiting for someone
to soothe and to say
“I understand. You’re home.

I realized I didn't have his "eyes" — though once he pointed it out, it became obvious. It made me think, "My God, I never look enough," and in the years since, I've tried very hard to look — and look again."
