i am you, you are me

if you are i
and me is will
will my words seek a thrill
through carnivorous caverns
and molten hills
at the top's a flag
which you have peaked

if you are me
and my will is yours
will everything i speak become assured
like flying nats and stinging bees
the creature inside of your skin
wants to be free

if I am you
and your will is fire
then i know your truest desire
break from the shell
that holds you closed
and show the world what you behold

If i am thou
and thy art i
A message from me to you will withstand time
and so it seems no matter the streams
the flow of your river
is a fraction of my sea

And if I is me
and you are I
Then what i hold
you hold dear in mind
so you are me
and i am you
and no matter what
your will breaks through
