Unreasonable Reason

You are the reason my heart beats … because somewhere in this universe your heart beats its own rhythm.

You are the reason I draw each breath … because it’s the same air you breathe, the same oxygen you draw into your being.

You are the reason I lift my face to the sun … because it is the same sun that bathes your world in light.

You are the reason I dream beneath the stars at night … because there I can touch you.

You are the reason I am never alone … because wherever I am, you are there.

You are the reason I wake each morning … because as long as there is another day, there is hope.
