To Be One

To Be One

Speak into my dark night

...shape my soundless voice

......help me find me
Hear hollow echoes bounce

...in my skull, die 

......behind my teeth
Touch me, open my eyes

...without tears, my mouth

......without tongue

I begged for existence—

...like any beggar

......I was invisible
You left, I stayed

...everybody passed

......through me

Lead this limp hand
...read these wilted words
......restore my speech
......
Say I am, I will be again

...speak my name and I exist—

......as one
