Inside


I have looked into your soul,
The place where no one else goes,
Tears that flow down your face,
I touch the places that you fear most.

Life has given its greatest treasure,
Into my life you have come with trepidation,
Capturing my soul with your inner most secrets,
I touch you with love in every breath I breathe.

I understand the pain that love can give,
Trying to find the roads and paths,
Tearing you apart and breaking your heart,
Not knowing where to turn.

There is a place where your soul can travel,
After pain has filled your lungs like drowning water,
It lies beyond the sea of torment and degradation,
There I wait to take you in my arms.

Love has no rhyme or reason,
It haunts the caverns of our souls,
We think all is lost but it survives,
Never dying but hiding in the heart.

I have seen you when your walls are down,
The place where only I have gone,
I hold your soul next to mine when I sleep,
Giving you all I have to give, and loving you on the inside.
