Once
You realize you
Feel
Beauty,
You
Will never see
Anything
Or
Anyone
In the same
Way.

Take a look around and what do you see?
People running around like crazy
Too busy to see
Someone’s fallen.
And they’re falling.
They keep falling
Down.
People self absorbed
Caught in their crazy lives.
Why can’t they open up
Their eyes
And see?
Someone’s fallen.
And they’re falling.
They keep falling
Down.
People keeping their eyes
On the prize
Instead of what’s inside
Never taking the time
To see
Someone’s fallen.
And they’re falling.
They keep falling
Down.
People gathering so much stuff
And there never seems to be enough.
Their hands too full
To reach out and help
Someone that’s fallen.
And they’re falling.
They keep falling
Down.
People’s souls cold as ice
Always trying to grab a slice
Of what’s in other people’s possession
So they fail to
Understand
How someone could have fallen.
And they are falling,
They find themselves falling.
And then they look around and see
Nobody cares
That they, themselves, have fallen.
Hey.
If I were to lay down,
Lay down all of me
Allow you to see.
Would you be still?
Would you breathe?
Soak in the silence
Without stirring?
Could we love
Seeing the entirety of me
Feeling the completeness of us?
Could we settle in
The serenity
And share
The whole of you
With
Everything of me?
Allow me to see
Let me feel
The whole of you
In the stillness.
I let you see me.
I’ve let you in too
Close.
I……
Will run.
I
Must
Rush away
As fast as I can
And
Hide.
Turn my face
Away
And
Withhold the broken bits.
I just can’t do it.
I can’t let you
See
The inside,
Wasted
Pieces
Of me.
I will shove you away
With these two hands of mine.
I will shove you away
And a piece of me will die.
Inside.
I love you.
I love you,
You see
But you are not
Allowed,
In turn
To love me.
I’ll run away
And try to forget
That you ever touched me
That our souls ever met.
