The You.

There exist many people within this world, your world, my world.
The you that exists within your friends heart...
The you that exists within your family's heart...
The you that exists within your lovers heart...
The you that exists within your own heart...
You are so many, yet... you are only one.
Who are you? Me? Us?
What are we within our hearts?
Within another's? 
What you are in your own mind shapes what you are in another's heart.
You see yourself as you come to be.
