I am blind
Lend me your seeing
I am dull
Lend me your brilliance
I am slow
Lend me your speed
I am heavy
Lighten my load
I am listless
Lend me your energy
I am night
Until the day breaks
I am black
Without all your colors
I am lonely
Without you shadowing me
I am cold
I need your heat
I am hungry
To partake of your garden
I am amazed
With your magic displays
I cannot hold you in my hands;
but my mind’s eyes blaze with all your beauty.
