I cry from within
and smile outside.
In a solid strength
I become weak inside.

As I gaze longingly
into your magical eyes,
for you are the fresh fragrances
of my eternal desires.

For in your arms,
I am now freed
for your touches
will make my heart
always flutter.

So in the tears of loving one another,
in the cuddling of each others spirit,
your faith within me
will never evaporate

So as you hold me
in the strength of a lover.
My weakness for you
will make you cry
within my needs for you.

On a piece of paper that disappeared during my shift, in words written down in a stanza from a somber mood. The following stanzas below were returned anonymously days later in three different writing styles. So in the poem above is how I might have finished, and below their version.

Team Words from the Heart of Maintenance (Their Title)

I cry from within
And smile outside.
In a solid strength
I become weak inside. (Written by David Young)

For a lengthened instance
From a solid base of brutality
The foundation of strength
Hints of the earthquake within (Written by Unknown Maintenance One)

That can not be measured
By machine alone
Only by the feelings
Of others and others
Alone, alone, alone
Lone (Written By Unknown Maintenance Two)

Oh for the smile so fake
That reflects only ones outside self
Meaning, needs are ever abundant
To become true to self’s inner being
And portray truth to all,
Never again to lie, to lie, to lie, to lie…. (Written by Unknown Maintenance Three)

(smiles) Oh David, this poem too brought tears to my eyes because I know this feeling where you have fallen in love and cry thinking of how special it is and how you never want to let it go and just the thought of it can be saddening! (big hugggsssss) I love how you also shared the other thoughts in your head with us just for kicks, I like that, it's almost like a rock star when he or she writes many thoughts down but always re-works parts of the lyrics, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet David, thank you for sharing!
