Be

Make yourself a part of something,
Everytime its touched,
Become the very heart that beats,
In things that can't as such...
The chair that you are sitting in,
The mirror when you stare,
Lending you the images,
Between you and the glare...
The sun that shines upon you,
As it soaks beneath the skin,
The bow that's after rain,
With every color mixed within...
The loved one that's besides you,
Even if they're just a friend,
Or ones that have denied you,
That may bring it to and end...
To be a part of something,
That was not a part of you,
Means that you are just the one thing,
That it needed to be true...
