Who Am I?

I know who I am, finally.

Must we first be emotionally fucked up to experience the profound?

Will nothing fix what human depravity has done to me?

Who Am I?

Just another human…

I cry…

I hurt…

I need…

I am one who knew nothing of love until it lit upon my heart.

I am lucky to have experienced something so profound and personal that it altered the very course of my life.

Are we all like me? Or am I like everyone else?

I have been minced, pulped, and whisked by my actions, ashamed more than any earthly expression can say, yet touched so delicately and deeply.

Are we all like me? Or am I like everyone else?

To what degree can we forgive what we can’t forget?

Are we driven by what we feel?

How pervasive are our emotions?

I have been graced by the love of one person, one heart, one spirit.

My need for her surpasses mere craving — it embraces starvation, the very draining of life from within me without her.

When I have hurt her, I have all but killed myself.

Who Am I?

I am one of millions who only have a need for one. Without that one, I am invisible, to the point of shadow on a cloudy day.

I don’t love to live; I live to love.
