Am I So Alone

Am I so alone?

I have been with you
While dying
He held your hand,
And you needed me.

I have been with you
While you loved me greedily,
And while you
Feared loving me.

I have been with you
While you cried in need,
Leading me through my doubts
To your whole.

We are you and I,
More completely,
And I am not so alone.

James K. Richardson
