This is a really incredible poem that's all about love and sacrifice and so many other Supernatural themes. But I can't figure out which characters or pairings it works for. At the beginning, it seems like Dean talking to Sam, but towards the end it's Castiel talking to Dean, and somewhere in the middle it's Sam and Cas. So I want your thoughts about this poem. Who is it about and which community should I post it to?

The Key to Everything
Is there anything I can do
or has everything been done
or do
you trust me to do
it right or is it hopeless and no one can do
a thing or do
you suppose I don't
really want to do
it and am just saying that or don't
you hear me at all or what?

You're
waiting for
the right person the doctor or
the nurse the father or
the mother or
the person with the name you keep
mumbling in your sleep
that no one ever heard of there's no one
named that really
except yourself maybe

If I knew what your name is I'd
prove it's your
own name spelled backwards or
twisted in some way the one you
keep mumbling but you
won't tell me your
name or
you don't know it
yourself that's it
of course you've forgotten or
never quite knew it or weren't willing to believe it

Then there is something I
can do I
can find your name for you
that's the key to everything once you'd
repeat it clearly you'd
get up and walk knowing where you're
going where you came from

And you'd
love me
after that or would you
hate me?
no once you'd
get there you'd
remember and love me
of course I'd
be gone by then I'd
be far away
