Just To Be Here...

No need to think
No need to reason 
Yet still I fear
I do

But                                                                       

Something brings me back to you 

Just to be here 

You with me and me with you 

I learned to live

In a world of lies
Yet pretence is my despise
I was lost; could not be found

Simply feared that I had drowned

I took my time to make the break
Waiting to be right for me
And when it came there was no mistake
Just unforeseen misery

And with this pain and wound filled war
I may be more mistrustful than before 

You are patient; you just are
When I can't speak, you don't make me tell
You let me sit, just feel me well
I felt your sense the day we met
An unspoken link I won't forget
Honest compassion remain my core
And I want to move forward more and more 

Yet despite my hanging hesitation
Together we've become a strong combination

Of things and stuff
Of stuff and things
Anticipating what tomorrow brings 
You know me now
You tell somehow
That I only say what I truly know
But sometimes I struggle to let it go

Stop right now 
Wait to see 
Can only wonder what we'll be 

Together or apart

A completed soul or a scooped out heart

But the time feels right to share with you
That I like being here, me and you

I've left the past so far behind
Nothing left here to remind
Me of what I had before
Just a sense of wanting something more 

So say something now

Let me show you how

I yearn to see, to hold, to say
I  don't want to waste yet another day
But then there is a tiny voice
Which comes along without a choice

I know it may be pushing back
From what I feel 
From what I sense
Giving me a breather from this intense...

You with me and me with you 

Glimpsing some imperfections 

Seeing as whole or just as sections 

Keep me close  

Hold me tight

Tell me that it will be all right

You and I may have briefly met
Separate from my conscious mind
Again we may if I could just let

My spirit rise with that rawness in kind

I rise I fall

I feel large I feel small

I feel strong I feel weak

I may be lost I may seek

I rise I fall

I may just give you my all

A brush of hair

A lingering glance

That's what takes you there

No second chance 

You touch me without being near

I feel you when you're not here

I want to live life and not feel fear
To be at one; to be sincere

Place your face so close to mine

Our hips and shoulders all align

Wrap your arms around my skin

And let me breathe and drink you in 

I am here now for the while

Just set me free from that life of trial

I know I am truly strong
Ready to be me; right and wrong
To be those words - live, love, laugh 
To live my life whole; not just a half

You seem to know how to harness my heart

Hold my all and not pieces in part

Believe me
Do
Believe I feel

Believe me
Yes
Believe it's true

And oh my goodness,
It feels so, so real
When I look right into you

Light that slow burning ember

Experience what it is to remember

How to breathe deep
And soundly sleep
Share the dreams
And wistful whims
Laugh a lot
And hug some more
Look inside 
with eyes that adore

Come to me 

Set me free
To be who I want to be

Just to be here

Me with you and you with me

You take me somewhere I've never known
Carried far

Soft cries, gentle moan

Let me stay here for a while
You know I'm back when I do that half-smile

You touch me deep;  get lost inside  

An inner warmth, soft eyes open wide 

Bring me in and keep me here

Show me now not to fear 
Share with me your inner thoughts
And all that life's lessons have already taught
You too with me have shared past pain
And this drives you towards greater gain

Serendipity 

Just to be here 

You with me and me with you
