people ask me where i'm
as if i cocooned myself in the night.
but why love, i'm out here, right in the plain sight!
no no, my dear, i'm not tucked away in some mountain or faraway star!
i'm here, right here, waiting, just as you are.

for i'm in the flutter of butterflies
and in the buzzing noise of the beehives.
i'm in the thump of the falling leaves
and in the calm after a great tide.

i'm there when you smile when the warmth of the sun hits your face.
i'm there when you're crying and curse your miserable fate.

i'm in a lovers first kiss.
in their first heartbreak and their sinful bliss.
i'm in the pain, in the glory
in the happiness and every part of the story.

i'm there whether you want me or not
in every second and every single of your thought.
i'm in the evil, in the saint
in the beggar, in the vain.

for i am YOU and everything you want me to be.
all you need is to want
to

(disclaimer : the 'i' here is not necessarily a religious entity. this could be a feeling. a feeling of happiness or quite simply a feeling of being. the 'i' stands for anything that makes you feel alive.)
