"you Are"

My heart beat,
my breath,
the driving force, 
behind my every step.

  My sunshine,
  in the rain,
  the medicine, 
  for my pain.

A cool,
glass of water,
a breath
of fresh air.

 The glitter
 in my eyes,
 the stars
 in my sky.

My peace,
at night,
for the wrong,
you're my right.

 My smile,
 my joy,
 and so much more.

My life,
 that's what you are.
