Inside Me

Inside me
you belong inside me
with spinning Beatles records
cold dawns and scrap paper poetry
there's a place for you inside me
'cause you belong inside me
with your honey voice singing
slow songs and childhood memories
where we shared a stoplight
and the afternoon air
follow me
follow me on down
through dying strip malls
crying skies and emotional breakdowns
that have been promised to us
to invade us
this will persuade us
to stare into eachother's eyes
where eachother spies
a place inside for us
inside me
inside you
happy love and blue guitars
frozen pens thawing
bleeding coffee cup poetry
we shared in embraces
melting together
we're melting together now
like those old records in the sun
and these hard candy memories
sticking to my mind
inside this time
we're toasting to this time
with flowing rain and white rum
running through the sprinklers
finding our place there
between the setting sun
and the rising moon
inside me
inside you
a candle burning in eachother
scared by the wind
trying to get inside us again
inside our love

"Poets are all who love, who feel great truths, and tell them; and the truth of truths is love." --Philip James Bailey
