To You, Who Am I

! TO-U! WHO AM I

i am no longer the want or the need. 
I am not the pass or the present.
I am not yesterday or 2 day
I am not the sunshine or the rain
The pleasure nor the pain,
The lost nor the found,
The borrowed nor the lend,

But I am!!!

!The answer to the question u never asks.
The one u never wanna lose.
The time of the day or night,
The word that makes it all ok.
!Time when u have none!
Ur display when screen goes blank.
The text that says hi,
The difference between hate and love.
The creation that makes a wow!
The pillow that cuddles u,
The warmth on coldest night.
!The feeling that keeps u from crying!
a light in the dark, a charge when u have non, a call when u have no credit, I am, as u make me, 
Keep me care me, hold me close for il last u as long as u remember me, as long as u feel me, as long as u see me.
Thus being I am a rose in ur garden, needing water and light, once I start lacking in any of the above then ul loose me as time goes for il bloom bright and big always to ur delight but in lacking, 
My petals will fall one by one and soon after my leaves then il be no more.
