The You In Me
The veil of who I am I without hesitation reveal freely to each of you
Sharing past and present hurt or love’s paths visited or traveled to
Yes my friend there are dark moments and glimpse’s of sincere light
Joy of my triumphs hand in hand with emptiness of cold nights
The peaks as well as valleys of a life opened for your view I’ve lived
Trinkets in time here I confess have been taken and things longed to give
Come inside sit and rest my friends open door do make yourself at home
There may be a hallway to unknowns you respectfully chose not to roam
We all have times those intimate margins of life some better than others
Let nurturing find healing much needed rest one similar to that of a mother
Look closely and see if possibly a time recognized a faded reflection of you
Possibly a regret of a bad choice something we each long in our soul to undo
Truth denials partnered with secrets sometimes yes hard to face in our self
Pushed out of reach or site delicately covered with years of dust on shelf
Reach in pull them out into light peel away the wrapping of spider’s webs
Growth sometimes comes from things done or words we forgot we have said
A learning process a development of times pasted the inner self wanting to become
I beg of you never for a moment throw in the towel your victory in will be won
