hey…wahtcha hidin’ behind
whatcha hidin’ from
hey…speak up
tell me about it

i won’t tell
if you don’t want
me too

tell me what you’re
all about
not what you do
for work
i don’t care
about your
job

tell me about you
the real inner you
that causes what
you do
that ignites
your you
tell me
what makes
you mad
tell me
what makes
you laff
your smile
is born of
what could be
called love

is love a dream
or just our
hopes
dreams
and sometimes
schemes
that rise up
from that pit
below our stomachs
that ache
for release
for sharing
for the sake
of being
we love
we love to
think love
when its missing

we love to be love
when there’s that
special feeling
that is a loss
of words…but
so brilliant in
its feeling
that we feel as
tho we are
flying
high
we become when
we call it love

love love
love love

will it ever get old
or just the search…

that endless search
from birth to death
of seeking out
the “L” word
we know it when
we share it when
we cry for it when

whenever love
reveals itself
its just the glow
that radiance that
shines upwards &
forwards from
the darkened object
that interferes
with all of it

Love blinds
Love stinks
Love rules

Tell me about your
love
what you think
when love comes around

tell me so i’ll know
tell me so you can know
tell me and i’ll tell you
l do want to tell you
more that what i do
i want to tell you
what i am when i am
alone
thinking of love.
