i am me/and not me but now/i am me/and not you

[vurtomatic]

i am the ever-opening flower
petals layers skins unto me
unfurling uncurling touched
brushed by the lightest breeze
i unfurl in the light upon us
that envelopes and defines us
i am the snowflake descending
fallen lightly i touch
upon your shoulders so lightly
in the moment a petal alights
and catches the light
it sparkles like the life it imbues
and gone
i am the ghost that walks through us
breathing across our lives
gliding so lightly
you turn askew
wondering
who walked on your
bed
grave
i am the lover reclined on your bed
who cant feel
but touch
your hearts in you i lose
our selves
and find
my self
enshrined we love slowly thickly
viscous lazy
i am the eye of the storm
all-seeing; yet not
lost unto myself
drowning but for who?
snowflakes, petals
whipped and torn asunder
i am the peace i am the calm
or so i hope so i crave
i am me
and not me but now
i am me
and not you
i am the ever-opening snowflake
catching the light as i fall
from grace
touch your life and i am
gone
for better, for worse
one touch
one snowflake
one ever-opening flower
