I Am©

My thinking as I wrote "I Am", was the complete submission to the man that I desire - no holds barred, stripped down, this is all me - love of another person. As I refine who I am, and who I desire in my life, I find that I am more about being completely honest with myself, and whoever I find myself involved with. I spent so much time in my life, trying to be perfect. But in one bright light bulb moment, exhausted from the weight and stress of it all, I realized that I'm not. I am who I am - mistakes and imperfections. In taking down that shield, I felt such a rush of relief. The fear had always been, if I showed someone who I really was, would they like me, or want to work with me, or even love me. I never considered the opposite thought - what if I showed who I am, and they did? Or better yet, why should it matter? If I am not liked or loved, it may be less to do with me, and more to do with that person.

Now that I look to live authentically, I hope that I will attract that as well. I am now free to be simply - me! "I Am" can almost be considered a pledge. As you read it, I want you to think about what you would be willing to pledge to your love....



I Am
all yours
I give of myself freely
unlock all my hidden desires
I willingly submit to your heart's fire

I Am
all yours
I've broken down the walls
that divide my love
Conquered all the demons that lurked inside
released all my treasures

I Am
all yours
Allow me to love you
see every part of you
let us hide nothing from one another
see me as I am

I Am
all yours
Let's share our love and loving
melt our hearts together
take my hands
choose to love me

I Am
all yours
Let us always affirm one another
confirm one another
be at peace with one another
let patience and wisdom be our guide

I Am
all yours
I'll take my time loving you
like a loving artist
I'm willing to grow and evolve
always open my heart and mind in order to live our love's story

I Am
all yours
And as father times passes
and our courtship is more defined
as our love begins to ripen
I pray
That one day
You are
All Mine
