You Are, I Am (Poem)

Scott Whitby, 2023


I'm black and white

You're red and blue

I'm gray at best

Not purple like you


You are a poem

I’m only a word

You tell the story

I am never heard


You are the chords

I'm just a note

You are music

I wish I wrote


I am a petal

You're a bouquet

No one remembers

If I fall away


But here we are

Sailing together

You are the bird

I am your feather
