Everything to Me

By: Herlinda M. Giles

How do you tell someone
who is everything to you,
"thanks?"

How do explain things
that are so deeply felt?

How do you define
a shift of the soul?

Friendship is such a weak definition
for what we have.

We are not of the same blood yet,
we are bound.

The dictionary
is full of useless adjectives.

So,
I will say,
you are my breath,
my heart,
my life.
